so here in the northeast we've had a little rain the past 2 or 3 days.
well a LOT really. thankfully around my part of CT not too much flooding. the CT river does seem to be pretty high, but i cant really see it at night, while driving on the highway.
but south eastern CT got hit hard. as well as Rhode Island. See, our HQ is located there. and they are experiencing some nasty weather/flooding issues.
some of the HQ (and the like) buildings have lost power, and some have some flooding.
the entire chain was affected. i guess the Rx couldn't process insurance, and couldn't take new prescriptions. the registers weren't accepting debit cards nicely. so it was cash or credit only. we didn't receive any checks up front while i was up there, but im sure they would've probably had issues. most of the stuff went on the fritz around 2pm. we couldn't look up peoples phone numbers on the register if they didn't have their store cards, and the coupon machine wasn't behaving either. when i got in just after 2 ,our keypad alarms at the back door and at the pharmacy were going off. i called my mom at her store for something and they were going off, and my brother said they were in his store as well. pretty much all at the same time.
crazy stuff today.
luckily it wasnt busy (due to all the rain) so there wasnt too much OMG WHAT>>>NO DEBIT>>ZOMG. kind of stuff
we still have a buttload of easter candy left. what is scary is that most of it will probably sell by the end of saturday night :/
