Supposedly CVS is planning on buying out Hy-Vee pharmacies? Has anyone heard anything to substantiate the rumors?

I doubt it, the pharmacies are inside the grocery stores, which means just closing them down and transferring all the files.
I don't think they'd do a Target style buy out either, Target expanded CVS's market considerably. There's already CVS stores everywhere there are Hy-Vee stores.
Plus, Hy-Vee just pro/de-moted a president to being leader over the healthcare division. That sounds like they are paying attention to it, not letting it get bought out.
Finally, Hy-Vee is planning on expanding into 4 new states this year. While a sale of the pharmacies might help fund the expansion, I think it's more likely to be expanded with the stores.

I just don’t see why they would considering Hy-Vee just built a handful of central fulfillment centers.

Do you think it is time to find another job when your PIC is a micro manager, never trained you when you got hired, expects you to know things no one ever told you about in the first place, texts and calls you in the morning with questions you don’t have an answer to (I work evening shift so I’m mostly sleep when he reaches out), assumes the worst about everything, plots against you anyway, lies all the time, they don’t even do their job, they leave their trash behind etc. gives me anxiety.
