I worked!
License be damned, they put me to work today. I got in, ran the register in the pharmacy for the majority of the day, and at about 2:30pm they decided it was slow enough for me to go back to the bench and see how production is run.
“Have you ever counted before?” I was asked.
“Yeah. M&Ms on a paper plate with a plastic fork,” I replied.
*much laughter* “Well, here’s a bottle of Vicoden, it needs to be double counted, and there should be 30. These aren’t M&Ms.”
And so we went over labelling and scanning and counting and all that fun stuff, and I got to pull a few things off the shelf before I came to the rescue and went back up to the counter to ring because someone was going to lunch and the only person not doing anything is a newly-hired tech with less experience than me.
Eddie and I are drinking. I’m drinking Mike’s Hard Berry, and he’s got beer. I’m not pacing myself. With any luck we’ll end up drunk and misbehaving just like the last time we had booze in the house.
