Some employees at CVS Health Corp and Walgreens Boots Alliance's U.S. pharmacies launched a three-day walkout starting Monday to get the companies to improve working conditions and recruit more people, among other issues.
This might inspire people to leave and try an independent pharmacy. I imagine that most of them will stay, reducing the workload for the staff at CVS and Walgreens. Everybody wins!
Problem is a lot of those independent pharmacies are already gone. In my area, I have one independent pharmacy, one semi-local grocery store option, and Walmart. That’s the only alternates to Walgreens/CVS here.

Think smaller; this is probably the first sign of large scale pharmacy unions
Some don’t have a choice, unfortunately
Yeah, I was at one for I don’t know how long. Then CVS bought them out. Now I have to drive two hours to the next closest one. No thanks.
