After reading cloudiko's post I rather wish this kind of day on one of the local pharmacists. He went off on me when I went in to pick up my g/f's prescription for no apparent reason.
PJ: Pharmacy Jerk
Me: Ummm...nah, you know this one.
SM: Store Manager
Also, just to note, there was only one other customer in the entire store, which was an independent drugstore similar to CVS & Rite-Aid. So, I walked right up to the line-free counter.
PJ: *doesn't look up from the computer or anything, must have seen me in his peripheral vision* Can I do something for you?
Me: I'm here to pick up a prescription for <g/f>.
PJ: *still doesn't look away from the computer* As you can see we're very busy. It's not ready yet.
Me:
Really? It was sent in three days ago and she really needs the refill. (it was sent in on Thursday, this was Sunday) Could you double check to make sure?
PJ: *finally looks at me, for the purpose of glaring, and raising his voice* I told you it's not f---ing ready, what the hell is your problem? I'm f---ing busy here and I don't have time for this crap!
Me: *in quick succession
* I don't see a line and this was called in on Thursday. It was supposed to be ready yesterday, but we were out of town and got back a day late. There's no one else anywhere near the pharmacy counter and I notice you haven't even checked the f---ing bin. Maybe try being less of an a--hole while you're at it.
PJ: That's enough! *grabs the phone, pages the store manger to the pharmacy* You're getting banned! I don't get paid to deal with this f---ing crap. *storms out through the back door*
Me:
SM comes up. Asks what I need. I lodge a complaint regarding the way I was treated by PJ. I included my final statement to him, verbatim, as I really felt I was entitled (evil word!) to treat him as I did at the end.
SM apologizes profusely and checks the bin. What does he find? There's the prescription all ready to go. SM rings me up and sends me on my way. I inform him we'll be taking our business elsewhere despite the apology. And we've since taken all our business to Rite-Aid because my threats to go elsewhere are not the empty SC kind of threats.
