Pharmacy Degree Or don't mess with me Part 2.

I'll try not to drag this storyout too long. My Dr phoned in a script for me today. I went to pick it up and was told that it was not called in. One of the pharmacists overheard the conversation and called me over to him. He asked my birthdate and then said that a mistake had been made with the script. It seems that they called in a script that doesn't exist. I said that's interesting because I have had that drug before, in fact I bought it here. He says just a minute. He comes back and says it is an unusual drug and we don't have any in stock. I said yes, it had to be ordered in last time I got it too. (But don't tell me that it doesn't exist). Then he says that today's order had already gone out so it wouldn't be in until Monday. Then he asked if I could wait that long. I told him, What else am I going to do? I don't see that I have any other choice. He said that he would call around and see if he can get it anywhere else. In defense of the pharmacy, they just barely moved into a new building. They have only been open for 2 or 3 days. But they'd better have their facts straight because they might be dealing with a professional patient. 

They opened up this new clinic and pharmacy and they hauled over the ugly old chairs from the old clinic. And some of the chairs are worn out. I can't believe they have a brand new building and those ratty old chairs.

I guess they had to cut cost someplace!

I guess the recession has hit them to huh? I sure would spend the extra money to get new chairs in the office, especially when the old ones are ratty looking.

You are too nice! I call all the pharmacies near me to figure out which has the drug on hand. That's where I have the Rx sent, or else I transfer it to them.
