Has anyone heard of any information on any changes coming to health and wellness?! Particularly vision centers? I heard H&W may be splitting as in VC & Pharmacy not being together anymore. Appreciate any and all info.

https://futurism.com/walmart-is-getting-new-employees-and-theyre-robots/ article mentions robots in pharmacy. There is a new robotic pill counter that tracks everything in the pharmacy. Its supposed to replace techs and make it so one pharmacist can do most of the work.
The new contact lens company we started using this month is owned by NVI
They waste sq footage on the checkout alone.
I doubt it. The business is moving to online. Why waste the payroll and the square footage.
I’m sure they have several 3-party’s ready to move in.
National Vision doesn’t want us.
National Vision also operates vision centers in 227 Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (WMT) retail locations. They want 3-party to all locations.
At this point, as long as I could keep my years of tenure, vacation, etc, I think I would welcome it. At least then, we may have a glimmer of a chance of promotion or moving up and maybe close on Sundays.
VC is going 3- party like the rest of them.
That’s why they won’t be with Rx anymore.
