Most hated customer of the day #3

The reminder

I dun have dementia, u dun have to keep repeating that im a pharmacist, a healthcare professional and in my professional opinion... blah blah blah

If ur mother is suffering from dementia and u are wondering ur ass off why is she not prescribed with the magical vitamin B12 by the doctor. CALL her DOCTOR and ASK HIM.

Dun come to the pharmacy and start asking me tonnes of stupid questions: why the generic B complex doesnt contain B12? Why didnt the doc prescribe my mother B12? How is B12 being manufactured by the pharmaceutical plant? Why do pple take B complex? According to this book, B12 deficiency may be the cause of dementia, why didnt the doc give her something that has B12.. ???????

And with almost every question, u have to remind me that I am a healthcare professional whose brain is filled with knowledge to answer any enquires regarding the use of vit B12 and their association with dementia.

First of all, if the bloody B12 is so impt in the treatment of dementia, im sure the doc will prescribe it. Secondly, if you have any problem with the doc not prescribing B12 pls discuss this with the doc. If u r so bloodly concerned abt ur mother, shdnt u pose the question when u accompany ur mother to the doc, u old mama's boy? Thirdly, I guess dementia runs in the family becos do u remember? Ur mother is the one who has dementia, NOT ME. I KNOW im the pharmacist. SO STOP REMINDING ME!!

Dude, perhaps you need a change in career. You are a pharmacist, people have questions about medications, vitamins, minerals, etc. and you respond to them the best you can. That's all. That's YOUR JOB as a retail pharmacist. For you to be able to label a customer "Most Hated," not once, or twice, but three times in just one day, shows that maybe there's not only something wrong with the customers. Perhaps you should look at yourself. It's a shame that there are too many like your breed in the retail pharmacy world.

SAVE ME!!! ANYONE!!!
