Somethings wrong with this neighbourhood

Usually, they roam in groups after the sun has set. Wearing bright colors on their faces and ultra-mini shirts on their hips, they try to enthuse the old male human race of the earth. They come in various shapes and sizes and fr all over the world; tall, short, fair, tanned, chinese, philipines, thai... U name it, they got it, all for ur pleasure, sir...

So u ask, what izit going to do w me? Oh Pissed one?

Well, normally i dun really have anything against these group of customers.. They bring us business, buying condoms and feminine wash and all time fav Canesten vag tab... til yesterday...

This lady, lets not say the race but definitely she belongs to the occupation i described above. came askin for OC (oral contraceptives). For all of u outside the narrow circle of pharmacy, OC are prescription only. Meaning: bring me a valid prescription fr a registered doc in SINGAPORE, then i will gladly sell the damn thing to u. Throw in a smile even, if u r polite and keep ur mouth shut while im processing ur script.

Anyway, i told her nicely i need a script. Then she asked abt morning after pills which i told her the same thing. Then she asked me what OC i hav in the pharmacy, which is like so many becos of the customer demand here and wats the point if u hav no script. Gave her straight answer: NO!! and then she insisted on seeing the morning after pill.. What to do?? Customers are our first priority, so i showed it to her and like all hookers fr the that part of the world, she knows no english...

I was abit worried that she might juz snatch the thing and ran off but luckily for me she didnt..
Anyway, she start asking me again why i cant sell her that despite i used all the key words in my first explaination: Prescriptions, see doctor, cannot sell, the law.
Next thing she said is the best, "You cannot secretly sell to me? No 1 will know"
All my explainations down the sewage drain... mebe STD can turn grey matter into jelly like the mad cow disease..
"Sori i cant do that becos i will be breaking the law" are words that came out of my mouth
"U tink i would waste my 16 years of education, my professional license and my future juz becos u had unprotected sex? mebe u shd worry abt getting AIDS instead." My thoughts..

In my opinion..

Was doing OT yesterday in another pharmacy in a classy shopping centre and I muz say the crowd there are nice, polite pple... even this annoying lady who gave me her opinion abt medicine.

Well, at first she asked for some flu med which i gladly dispensed and then she requested for Elomet cream. Well.. unfortuately here in Singapore, Elomet cr cant be sold without a prescription. So I politely told her "Sorry, no script, no cream." Offered her hydrocortisone cr which shd do the trick for her condition but oh no, Im too high class to use a steriod so common and mild.

Then she starts giving me her opinion on how she believes that only oral medicine that can kill needs a prescription and yada yada blah blah... She sort of stood there for a minute in silence after her little speech, I guessed she was hoping that i would break the law for her but I juz smiled sweetly at her.. My thoughts: Try harder


By the by, I too hav some opinions abt :

In My Opinion:

1. All idiots shd be let out of their house ONLY after 6.30pm, the time when Im off duty.
2. All medicine should NOT require a script so that dumb pple and smart alex can take whatever they wan ..... and prove themselves wrong.
3. All cheapoes shd carry a tag, identifying themselves in order to prevent any misunderstandings.
4. An extra charge shd be mandatory imposed on pple who ignored me initially when help is being offered and approached me later when Im busy.
5. A large poster shd be placed outside the pharmacy: STUPID QUESTIONS WILL NOT BE ENTERTAINED.

May the Sun be bright and Sunny

May ur skin be old and wrinkly

This is for the stupid woman who called and harassed me abt sunblock and SPF and how many times it needs to be applied and what if its for everyday uses like not directly under the sun. I am already unhappy becos a man came earlier for the third time for this cough med w promethazine. I told me that this is the last time im giving him and he needs to see the doc if its not better. Then he start raving abt its not for him, its for his fren which he recommends this to and how its works for him and yada yada yada... I switch on my IGNORE mode and try to push my " are u a doctor" speech down my throat.

Anyway, this ultraviolet ray-phobic lady called few mins later and starts shooting me dumb questions abt sunblock and SPFs and drives me mad. I lost it so i answered my last question before telling her "that's all" and cut her off. She tried to call back twice but my refusal to pick up the phone made her lodge a complain abt me.

But surprisingly, I feel I won this battle for once and finally its my turn to piss some1 off. I FEEL GOOD, BABY I FEEL SOOOOO GOOD NOW :D

Most hated customer of the day #04

Mebe its the cool air conditioning inside the pharmacy that drove the pack or simply becos this very pharmacy was built on this super-nuclear powered area that handphone signals are so damn good, more than 1/3 of the imbeciles that walk in everyday are holding a handphone to their ears while attempting to talk to me.

Most of the time, im resigned to my fate as an over-educated salegirl with the power to sell poisons so i try my best to help these idiots by selling them more than 2 pkts of chlorpheniramine. I try not to throw a bitch fit most of the time but sometimes, oh GOD help me, a piece of crap like this guy walks in and i have to show him my pissed face..

What happened was that he came in, asking for antihistamine tablets for his kid who cant stop sneezing in the morning. My sympathies to the poor kid and i hope he didnt get stupid genes, beside the sensitive nose genes, from both his parents.

Anyhoo, like all parents, he has absolutely no idea what his kid is taking so i showed him all the non-drowsy antihistamine tablets tt i hav and waited for 5 mins to the info to be transmitted to his tiny brain. Then after yet another 5 mins, he tells me he cant recognise any of them and of course to enjoy the excellent phone signal here, he pull out his mobile and start rattling off to his wife. Its the busiest time of the day, customers are overflowing into the pharmacy and i can see other imbeciles waiting to pissed me off at my counter already and yet this pig-like human being is still going on and on. Finally, he hanged up and told me H***d, which is the company's name.

Of course i know wat he wans from the med's company so i threw it at him. Now the problem is, he is the one who is unsure... so he has to ask me yet again,"this is the same as Clarinase?" which is NOT, so i corrected him: "no, its more like Clarityne"
" Whatever" is the reply i get from him. Im PISSED, PISSED, VERY PISSED!!!
