Customer: "
I have worms in my throat."
Pharmacy God: "
Excuse me, I didn't hear what you said."
Customer: "
I have worms in my throat."
PG: "
Oh....... how did they get there?"
Customer: "
My doctors are trying to kill me. They put the worms in my throat."
PG: "
How did your doctor put worms in your throat?"
Customer: "
They've been there for years. They are attacking my voice box. Can you see them? They're crawling up from my stomach right now."
In all of my years of pharmacy, I've worked in many different neighborhoods (usually only a day or two to cover vacations, but enough to be exposed to a variety of patients). I've worked in slums where I had an armed guard escort me from the pharmacy to my car in the parking lot. I've worked in pharmacies that were located next to strip clubs. I've worked in the inner city where every other patient is a hooker or IV drug abuser. I've also worked in several nice areas. I would say that I have seen just about the entire spectrum of patients.
I have never been as afraid of a patient as this little 110-pound woman. 400-pound men wigged out on cocaine couldn't scare me as much as this woman.
That's it. I was just thinking back on some of the freaks I've seen over the years and this woman came to mind.
Let's just say that she would NOT be a contender in a beauty contest. Something in honor of an arbitrary holiday like
HOT PHARMACIST DAY.
Keep sending in your photos. I've received several entries, but are you hotter?
Remember that the competition is open world-wide to pharmacists, techs, students.... anybody involved in pharmacy. Send your photos to
pharmacygod@hotmail.com. With all of the Halloween parties that are going on, I'm sure that there are a few pharmacy people who will be looking hot. Why not send in your photo and see if you will win?
