Ah yes, because I have always thought #CVS had too many employees, especially in the pharmacy. *facepalm*

... and even more infuriating? Today, #CVS announced it's laying off 5,000 workers. 😡
In its last quarterly report to shareholders, it announced:
💹 Revenue for the quarter up 11% to $85,300,000,000.00
💸 Handing out cash dividends to stockholders of $779,000,000.00
🤑 Buybacks of 22,800,000 shares of stock.

💊 How is it that literally every #prescription claim I have for #CVS #Caremark is not covered in accordance with my #insurance policy?
😡 Why do I have to spend hours of my time getting them to fix it every single time?
🤑 Monopolies are out of control in the US.

So it seems like #CVS has in fact run out of my #ADHD meds until July, based on my conversation with a senior customer service rep there, but the automated system won’t disclose that to me. It just says it’s “too early to fill my prescription.”
Fuck the DEA and the for-profit healthcare system for creating this shortage.
