“Pharmacists have become little busybodies”
Yes they have,,,, but this was about 30 years ago. But you signed a form, and supposedly drugstores, or some agency checked the forms to be certain ube wasn’t buying a lot of “sauce.”
My most recent run-in with a pharmacist was a couple years ago. I have a sleep disorder. Runs on the paternal side of the family. Inability to calm down enough to fall asleep. violently thrashing when asleep, and frequent somnambulation. I’d been filling the same script at this store for 5/6 years. I didn’t realize the current script had run out. I asked the druggist for one pill so I could sleep that night, and that I’d get my doc to renew it the next day. He refused. I told my doc the next day, and he was pi$$ed! He gave the druggist an earful. Couple weeks later, the guy was gone. Maybe others complained about his attitude. He was really snotty to this 65 year old, regular customer!
I just complained about a pharmacist at CVS! The only way to get things done is to make it uncomfortable for creeps who know nothing of customer service.
