Be nice to the girls in the white coats.
Today was insane. The people just never stopped coming into the store, and each one had something different to complain about. They can’t write on the electronic signature pad. They’ve got a rash, and can someone look at it. They’ve had this prescription for a narcotic in their purse for 2 months and even though it was only good for 30 days, could we break the law and fill it anyway. They can’t take 1 single 200mg pill because it makes them crazy, but they can take 4 50mg tabs just fine, and can we call the doctor to get it switched (why, so we can just give you 120 tablets for you to trade for percocet?). We did have some fun trying to figure out how long the prescription for the condoms last week was supposed to last (so insurance can determine if it’s too soon to refill) and came to the conclusion that 24 condoms should last 24 days, because if none of us were getting it every single day, then there was no way in hell we were going to let some 15 year old crazy chick get it every day.
This is why you don’t piss off your pharmacy staff. You won’t get as much sex.
Eddie and I got to play some WoW last night and actually managed to do some productive playing, if you can call trash talking with other people and killing people in a virtual world “productive” at all. There’s plans to do more this week, and we’re trying to convince the current guild leader to not change the guild’s name to something completely retarded.

I love the whole condom thing. That rates right up there for me asking the doc for a script for proper discipline of a child for the parents of an out of control 8 y/o kid.
He didn’t find it as funny as I did tho.

We actually got 3 scripts for one girl one night.
1. condoms.
2. birth control pills
3. 2 packs of plan B
We’re guessing she was extra fertile.

What??? You need a prescription for condoms?

No, people can come in at any age and just buy them if they want them. However, the state-funded welfare insurance will pay for them (only the cheapest ones though, no special ribbed ones or whatnot) if people have a prescription for them, so we do get the occasional RX for condoms now and then.

Ah cool, I wonder if we have that here. It’s possible that I’ve just never heard of it.
