So, You Wanna Sling Bandages and Beauty Products at CVS in Texas, Huh? Age Ain't Nothing But a Number (Unless It's On Your Driver's License)
Let's face it, CVS is like the ultimate adulting rite of passage in Texas. You need allergy relief? CVS. Weird rash that requires a pharmacist's consultation? Double-double time at CVS. But before you rush out and stock up on name tags (because, let's be real, those things are like gold), you might be wondering: what age does CVS even hire in Texas?
Spoiler alert: It's not like they're carding you at the door (although, with the selection of greeting cards they have, maybe they should). But fear not, aspiring retail warriors, we're here to break it down for you.
Teen Titans, Assemble! (At Least the 16-Year-Old Ones)
For all you hustlers out there who can handle a cash register without accidentally ringing up your grandma twice (we've all been there), 16 is the magic number for landing an entry-level gig at CVS in Texas. We're talking cashier, stocking shelves, maybe even becoming the resident expert on the clearance candy aisle. Just remember, with great power (like that employee discount) comes great responsibility (like asking every customer if they need help finding the, ahem, "adult entertainment" section...trust us, it happens).
But Wait, There's More! (For Adults, at Least)
Now, if you're aiming for a slightly more advanced role, like a pharmacy technician or a shift supervisor, then you'll need to have a little more life experience under your belt. Think 18 and up for these positions. These jobs involve a bit more responsibility, like dealing with prescriptions or making sure the store doesn't descend into chaos during the Sunday morning rush.
The Moral of the Story?
No matter your age, there's a place for you at CVS in Texas (as long as you can handle the fluorescent lights and the occasional existential crisis brought on by the sheer volume of greeting cards). So, brush up on your customer service smile, and get ready to embark on your glorious journey into the world of retail pharmacy!
P.S. They don't make you wear those red rubber gloves they have in the pharmacy, right? Right...? (Asking for a friend).
