Working as a pharmacist has its perks I suppose, however dealing with nutjobs on a continous basis isn't one of them. Im not at liberty to discuss names, however I can tell the story. Today I had a gentlemen call in and ask for a pharmacist, I drew short straw and picked the phone up. Introduced myself and asked what the issue was. Here is what he says; "Yea sonny, My Balls Itch, you gotcha any medicine for that?" Ironically I didn't even laugh, didn't even bat an eye, I composed and simply asked him; "Have you tried scratching them?"
I deal with things such as this on a daily basis, from someone screaming at the top of their lungs about not having a refill on their pain meds to someone relieving themself in our waiting area simply out of spite that they can't get their medicine. Last year the shredder boy got his arm caught outside in the machine and it ripped it off at the shoulder. They didn't get it re-attached. He's a nice kid too. Didn't deserve that.
I suppose im just venting after another crazy day, so come on folks. Lay it on me. Make me feel better about my job. Tell me how terrible you have it.
