  So I forayed into the land of the maskless people by Garrinka2022-02-09 06:14:36
    I went to my pharmacy yesterday to get my meds... by ShadowSystems 2022-02-09 12:47:11
I and my sighted helper both wore our masks & have had our booster shots.
The pharmacist & her helper were both wearing theirs; I can't say if they had their jabs or not, but given that the pharmacy is also a walk in free booster shot location, it's probably a safe bet to think they have had it.
The lady ahead of me in line was trying to fill her rx for the dewormer drug, written for her by her doctor.
The assistant explained that this pharmacy doesn't carry that particular drug & has no way to obtain it.
The woman threw a hissy fit & demanded to talk to the pharmacist.
The pharmacist comes out, asks what the problem is, & gets it full blast !SHOUTING! from the lady.
The pharmacist replies calmly that *they* don't carry the drug & have no way of getting it, just like requesting a Controlled Substance from a pharmacy not licensed to sell it, BUT that there IS another pharmacy that the woman can try instead.
The woman snaps that it's "about time you bastards gave us what we need" & took down the name/location of the other pharmacy.
She didn't say thank you, she didn't give any sort of acknowledgement of the assistance, just stomped away in a huff.
I could hear the pharmacist snickering & asked what was so funny?
"I just gave her the address for the animal hospital where they treat horses & cows. She can buy all the (name of drug) she wants from a pharmacy geared to administer it."
I nearly LMAO & gave the pharmacist a high five.
I suggested printing out business card-sized bits of paper with the contact details of said other pharmacy on it to hand out to such customers.
She chortled, asked her assistant to "knock something up on the printer", and thanked me for the idea.
The assistant had caused their printer to start churning out the print job & was humming happily as I left.
Common Sense isn't very common any more, but it's concentrating in some while abandoning others, so it evens out in the end.
