unfriendly, unwilling *(and more then likely uncapable) store manager

Went to Dunwoody, GA. store yesterday to purchase, among other things, 2 items that were advertised in the weekly ad with Register Rewards.
First of all when I asked the Muhamed, the store manager (who had such a strong accent that I could hardly understand him)where to find one of the items, he told me that they did not have the item.
When I asked one of the other store attendents she pointed me right to the item.
When I paid for the item, the Register Reward did not print and when the attendent brought this to the attention of Muhamed, he said that he could not override it, nor apply it to other item or print out a RR; the only thing he could do was to have me fill out a form to be sent in to Walgreens for a refund or I could come back when it was corrected in the system.
I know from past experience that this can be easily overridden by an experienced and willing manager.
The lady at the register was very nice and apologetic, but Muhamed lacked any courtesy and did not make any effort.
I ended up asking for my money back and walked out of the store without the items and, needless to say, without any apology from Muhamed.
If this is the type of manager Walgreens chooses to have in their stores, I will not be a customer in the future.

Hire capable store managers that are willing to do the job!

>> I know from past experience that this can be easily overridden by

The manager doesn't have a magic wand. The manager is also not a
computer programmer - ad prices and promotions are taken care of in a
building in Illinois by a department full of people who never have to
work directly with a customer in the over 7800 stores. If the reward
didn't print at a particular register, it is not the manager's fault.
It is an automatic process that sometimes glitches due to no fault of
personnel working on the store level. That is why there is an EXISTING
FORM to fill out in such a situation. The manager is REQUIRED to
handle your situation in this manner! Muhamed didn't write the
procedure, but is required to follow it. If he failed to apologize to
your satisfaction, follow the instructions which appear on EVERY
receipt. They tell you exactly which phone number or website to
contact - and I can guarantee you THIS ONE is not listed there.

Agreed. He sounds like a real crab ass.

cos you didn't put that in... you just said that you couldn't
understand his accent.

understanding some of this complaint. For that matter, the OP may be
completely uncorrect in what she says... maybe she just didn't
understand what he was telling her.
