Is this rx mine or not?
Every now and then we have a day that causes us to check the calendar to see if its a full moon. This day was one of them. She was in her 30’s, a yuppie type lady with high heels under a smart suit. She handed me a prescription from a clinic very nearby. She was not in my computer so I collected the basic bio-data from her and told her it would be ready in 20 minutes or so. “Oh no”, she said “I dont want to fill this here. I want it at the 99th and Standish store next week” (insert blank look here) I told her that if she drops it off HERE, it wont be THERE next week, it will be HERE at the 12th and main location (where she is NOW). She exhudes a look that says “can you be THIS stupid?” and said “Can’t you call this to them?” Just being a tad pissy that day I responded with “Cant you TAKE this to them, since you want to pick it up there anyway?” She huffily responded “I don’t have time”.
OK, lets recap. Miss I-dont-have-time drove a prescription to a pharmacy she didnt’ want to fill it at to put it on hold so WE could call somebody else next week to fill it elsewhere and she could drive and pick it up there. Perhaps I am missing something but wouldn’t it have been just as easy to have Dr Wonderful pick up the phone, call 99th and Standish, have the rx filled there? Just a thought.
I put the rx on hold and forgot about it. I have no idea if 99th and Standish ever called. I don’t care.
