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!

That is a little fkkked. Dude's on suboxone to better his life. Imo, drug addicts working on recovery are more bad-***** than never-addicts regardless of how it's done (unless it's just replacing it with other
unhealthy addictions). She works at a pharmacy, she shouldn't judge people on their prescriptions (I bet she does the same with stuff like Zepatier and benzos). That's like working at a grocery store and looking down at people who buy a couple bags of doritos and ice cream in the same trip.
Hope your dinner is delicious!
