The doctor can give you a script to bring to us (our favorite - unless they screw it up and we have to call and varify something), they can fax or e-scribe scripts (not narcotics, but most other medications), or they can call it in and we can take them over the phone (varifying DEA #'s, etc.).C.G.

I can imagine a pharmacy is proportionately worse.<br /><br />I've never heard of doctor's calling prescriptions in... in Canada you just show up at the pharmacy with your prescription!Emily, Ruby Slipper Journeyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18071938485961109157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4899893125552679366.post-72780813514643051792012-05-04T16:33:17.937-04:002012-05-04T16:33:17.937-04:00Karen

I think life teaches us lessons some are very hard for us to take I have been through one myself. Sometimes we don't know the lesson then but we may learn it in the future.<br /><br />Congratulations on taking the next step and I am sure that you will be incredible no matter what you do.<br /><br />Thank you<br /><br />Andrea @RightmoveAddictAndreahttp://tryingtobalancethemadness.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4899893125552679366.post-39289033615301055102012-05-03T13:24:20.257-04:002012-05-03T13:24:20.257-04:00Congratulations on persevering when things were to...Congratulations on persevering when things were tough and staying long enough to have positive experiences to balance or even outweigh the tough ones. Thanks for the good reminder to all of us not to take out our frustrations on those in customer service, and that our kind words as customers can make a huge difference. :) Blessings on you as you transition to whatever God has for you next!Sandy B.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4899893125552679366.post-35200393918190915352012-05-03T13:07:09.566-04:002012-05-03T13:07:09.566-04:00Well done, Sis!

I can only imagine what it must feel like to stand behind that counter when someone is irate. :)<br /><br />Where ever life leads you next, I'm sure it will be great!<br /><br />As for being kinder to service people, that's something I have to work on lately...I'm usually pretty good. But if something is really horrible, I generally have to say something to someone. Perhaps it's just a matter of finding the right person to fuss at :) Or starting a new fussing blog lolTiffany @ No Ordinary Homesteadhttp://www.noordinaryhomestead.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4899893125552679366.post-21740066736600274482012-05-03T08:49:27.424-04:002012-05-03T08:49:27.424-04:00Congrats on your last day of work!

After working as a nurse for 8 years, I can definitely identify with some of your stories. I think a lot of your delightful customers were patients of mine before they left the hospital to head to the pharmacy :) Working with the public can be such a challenge. I agree that doing it makes you a little more sensitive to how your treat other people when you are a customer! I also agree with what you said about the nice people making it all worth it.<br /><br />I can't wait to hear what you are up to next!Erikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14389005030066413697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4899893125552679366.post-7561357148291337282012-05-03T08:26:39.756-04:002012-05-03T08:26:39.756-04:00It is amazing what a job can teach us about oursel...It is amazing what a job can teach us about ourselves, isn't it?<br /><br />My very first job was an associate at Eckerd Drug. I would occasionally fill-in at the pharmacy. I quickly moved on to a barista job at a local independent coffee shop and couldn't have been happier. <br /><br />Here's to greener pastures!Karenhttp://www.andthenwelaughed.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
