Great post from "The Angry Pharmacist"

Not to be confused with "The Angriest Pharmacist". There seems to be a lot of anger in the pharmacy world.

A post that everyone that has ever worked in a retail pharmacy can relate to. I particularly like the one below

• When you call out a patients name to tell them their Rx is ready, the wrong person will come up and claim it. Then get pissed off because to them "John" sounds like "Steven".

At least twice a day this happens. I'll call "John Smith" and "Peter Jones" will come and try to grab the prescription. Okay, I mumble-but I do not mumble that badly. Luckily the address check normally means each person will get their correct medication. I'm not sure why it happens. Maybe people are sitting in their own little bubble, dreaming of being on "The X-Factor" and not listening. Maybe they are not listening at all. More likely each person is so full of their overinflated sense of worth that they think their prescription SHOULD be next, even if there are ten people, and thirty prescriptions, in the queue before them. Of course, they should not have to queue, they are special! Special-needs maybe but not many people get queue-jumping treatment.
