Wag extending hours but no staff?

I currently work at cvs and left wag in 2021. The store across from me is now 9-9 m-f and 9-6 sat 10-6 sun, but has been closing...A LOT.

They are recruiting the old RXM back from cvs and going to move the current RXM to another location when he returns from leave.

Problem is, I believe the current RXM is going to leave if they move him and they are already struggling to stay open. They have closed early at least 5 days out of the last 3 weeks, and completely closed 4 days that I know of.

When I worked there, it took 2 FT pharmacists plus 2 floater shifts a week to keep open those hours, I'm genuinely confused how they are going to be able to maintain the extended hours in this area when they can't keep the stores open as it is? Out of the 4 wags actually in town, only 1 has 2 pharmacists coded to the site, the rest are just 1 Rph and random floaters. If wag closes early or completely, it makes my day so difficult, so what is the thought process here??

I miss working there but also genuinely don't understand what's happening at the company anymore or why people are staying.
