Rx 4 RD
MAN, I don't know, but if i think about work, i really don't like it.
Its like one bad customer / patient is really all it takes to ruin your day. I also realized that less than 30% of the u.s. population has a college education. What does that mean? Exhibit A (thats my attempt at lawyer talk)
I had a customer this morning that got kind of got beligerant (sp?) and so forth because medicaid would not pay for their daughters insulin. Why would they not pay for it...? Because she dropped the vial she got last week (which is suppose to last a month) and broke it. He could not understand why they would not pay for it again. Its like if you lost your wallet, would you go back to the place you got it and demand a new one? Probably not, but this guy - i swear - probably would.
Exhibit B,
Pt doesn't think that there is enough medicine in bottle (it was a liquid). Why did she not think that there were 60 mls, in a 120 ml bottle? Because it wasn't filled to the top! In her exact words..."If all the medicine is there, then why isn't the bottle filled to the top?" I should have told her because its not a 2 liter bottle of pop you d_mb (BLEEP). Oh well.
Exhibit C
Women in drive thru at 4am today. "Can i have some Sudafed?" Me, " you can not purchase over the counter products through the drive through" women, "thats stupid, " and drives off. What amazes me though, is that this woman has never gotten psuedofed throught the drive through (against the law).
AND you know my epiphany was last night, my incentive is to have the least number of customers as possible, but walgreens is to have the most. At 90 % of businesses the immediate employee is to have that goal, especially service industry non-tip related. So with that women driving off, or that guy maybe not coming back (the insulin man), thats a bonus for me! My goal is to have the least customers as possible. I know what your thinking, "you might be out of a job" But i'm union now ! j/k : )
SO, like my boss said to me the other day..."you know, for a real big guy, you sure whine alot! "
WAH WAH WAH WAH, : )
i feel better
