FYI to Patients

As a somewhat veteran of the pharmaceutical distribution industry, at the retail level, I feel it's necessary to remind all patients of the following few things:

1) Do not stick your credit card in your mouth while digging through your purse, then hand it to us. That's disgusting, and can make us sick.

2) If you're sick, and getting an antibiotic or something, please attempt to not cough all over the pharmacy, the registers, or us.

3) Most important!! - When you're sick, and you are hesitant to hand over your prescription that you've coughed over, you should hesitate a little more in shoving the money we've watched you cough all over at us. Not only is that also disgusting, but it can make your resident technicians get ill with the flu, and not be allowed to work for a week.

Thank you for your time. Your regularly (or not) scheduled updates from the CPhT Extraordinare will resume whenever this tech is allowed back to work.
