transfers...

Transfers, the bane of my existence. Usually you bring in the bottle we get the info off the bottle and call the pharmacy etc. etc... when you call in and say just call the other pharmacy and get it my eye twitches.

No. The sign that says "easy transfers" also says "just bring in your bottle." let me repeat that, bring in the damn bottle! but the pharmacists made an allowance (how nice of her) so I told the guy I would transfer his prescription as soon time allowed. It was 5:30 in the afternoon and I had 15 waiters staring into the pharmacy. He threw a fit and said, "No you need you to do it now, cause they close at 6:30."

...you called in the middle of my afternoon rush to make me do a transfer without the bottle and you want me to do it now. Ok if it gets done today count yourself lucky. After telling him in the nicest way possible that I needed to get back to work and that I would do it as soon as possible (whenever I felt ike it) I hung up the phone and went back to my counter where I had 30 prescriptions waiting to be filled.

5 minutes later this bastard called back and was pissed it hadn't been done yet. Well he wasn't on the phone with me this time, he got a fellow intern who told him, "We will get to it and hung up the phone." LoL. I love that girl.

So after I got my counter clear, 18 minutes not bad, I called to do the transfer. This ass had NO REFILLS. All that harassment and you have no refills you retard. I thank the other pharmacy for their time, hang up go back to work while relaying the story to my co-workers.

So asshat comes in about 45 minutes later to pick up his prescription and gets told there is no prescription for him. he flips out yells and screams that this is an emergency and he needs his medication. Well I explain to him that there were no refills and he replies with, "the bottle says refillable until february." *groan* "sir that does not mean unlimited refills"
"well that's ridiculous I need my medication you can't withhold my prescription I could die. you could at least give me a dose to hold me over."

"Sir we do not give emergency supplies on Viagra."

...quiet pharmacy...::snicker::snicker:: then at least three of the staff make a beeline to the back to hide their quite audible laughter. He storms off while yelling "I'm going to write a letter."

Heh well I guess you'll have plenty of time to do it now won't you.
