Because when I called the Rite Aid media relations person and asked her if the company had plans to bring in replacement workers if a Southern California strike went down, she said it was just that. An "unsubstantiated rumor"
So, if you get a picture of an unsubstantiated rumor, is it still unsubstantiated? Or have you changed it's very nature, the way you can change photons in the double slit experiment merely by measuring them?
I may win a Nobel Prize for this. Me and the super secret spy who got the pic for me.

I love that they put "Temporary Associates" in quotes.
OMG. They're advertising for scabs. Who the hell would be so stupid to actually be one?
Wow. Just wow. They're actually trying to make it official.

The scabs will be union men posed as scabs who will wreck the business.
Customer "Where is the Advil"
Scab "Ask someone who gives a shit"
Now that sign makes me chuckle for a whole other reason. Having seen how long it takes for a successful applicant to go thru the background check, drug test, etc, Rite Aid could go weeks during the strike with no help. (It took a month to clear the last tech we hired - it was pathetic.)
Glad to know I wasn't the only one it took a month to hire. I was actually getting worried I had done something wrong I didn't know about.
In the 2003 UFCW strike, scabs were hired with no background check. Some of those folks were downright scary. I think their parole officers got them the jobs.
Great that'll help scripts at CVS since we're losing a few ESI patients! Just wish this was in my area.
Yet another reason on the loooong list of why I'm glad I no longer work for Rite Aid!!
Anyone, especially pharmacists, that accept these temporary associate positions should be photographed and posted on a "Wall of Shame" for lack of ethics. Keep your cameras handy and get us some pics -- the "Pharmacy Wall of Shame" will be coming to an Internet site soon.

I agree with bcmigal- I was working at Ralph's pharmacy at the time and saw dozens of scabs. They even kept one after the strike. Slap in my face.
