I usually brag on my small town pharamcy but I overheard a conversation that really was offputting. I was waiting for my prescription to be filled and the woman on the phone was being a bit hateful about this person's refill not being able to be filled yet. They were apparently talking about two different medicines at the same time and getting a bit confused on each other, it seemed. After she got off the phone she retorted "I just got a math lesson from that guy. He tried to explain to me what 28x2 was." and kept making fun of him., and while she didn't say anything outright, she did make the comment he was taking Suboxone. .... and thats where it really hit hard.


Maybe she thinks she is of a higher stature because she doesnt suffer with a drug addiction -- but people are people and deserve respect. From an outsiders point of view (mine), it felt like she was belittling him and even more so because of what he was concerned about. I'm not a drug addict but I worry excessively about having my medicine and having it on time. I felt a little acosted by her statement.

I just felt it was out of place, especially with customers, to make her comments she did.... the multiple she did while I was there.... anyway...

Monday is my day off, and my sister is gonna make me a belated birthday dinner. I hope it all goes well!
