https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/pharmacyfox/The pharmacy can be a very, . . . well, . . . interesting place to work. As a pharmacist, I see it all. I can't make this stuff up, and I would love to share it with you. The humorous, the sad, the ridiculous, the absurd. I get it all, and you can get your daily dose right here.hourly12000-01-01T12:00+00:00https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/pharmacyfox/460179Well,... I know that I have not written in a while. To be quite honest, things have been fairly mundane in the pharmacy. Very busy, but nothing too interesting - which is unusual. There is ALWAYS something interesting or funny to talk about,... but not lately. I should have realized that it was...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/pharmacyfox/457211Something happened today that I have truly NEVER even thought possible. As I have mentioned in the past, I work in a VERY busy pharmacy. During the day today, my technicians, as always, were working feverishly to fill fill fill. All of a sudden, one of my technicians is standing behind me asking...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/pharmacyfox/457209Sometimes it is truly funny to sit back and really think about what people are saying when they are speaking with you in the pharmacy. I had a little old man on the phone this afternoon. He was in need of a refill, and HE knew exactly what he wanted,... the trouble was getting that point across...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/pharmacyfox/456812WOW!! As a pharmacist, I get a LOT of questions each day. In fact, that is usually my very favorite part of the job - to answer people's questions. Most questions are fairly simple (Can I still take Tylenol with this antibiotic?), some are more complex (I have had a bad reaction to Lipitor,......https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/pharmacyfox/455593Well, overall today was a pretty good day! Very Busy, but I DID get to eat... sounds crazy, but that is something to be excited about! The funniest thing that happened today though simply must be shared. I was consulting a mother who was picking up a liquid antibiotic for her young son. I was...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/pharmacyfox/455431It has been a while since I have written, I know I know. This is sort of upon request from my husband - I have been under a Great Deal of stress at work lately, and he has requested that when I come home, there is NO PHARMACY!!! No talking about work, no writing about work, no THINKING about work....https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/pharmacyfox/453600Oh.....My.... Gosh!!!! I have come to a realization with regards to my pharmacy.... I honestly think that the actual building itself must have been built on some secret Indian Burial Grounds - - - you know,... like in the movie Poltergeist? Now, ever since I started at this pharmacy back in 2005...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/pharmacyfox/453193Today was pretty much your average day in the pharmacy. Very busy, short staffed, some crabby people, some very happy ones.... the extraordinary thing today, for me anyways, was something that most people really don't even think about. I have been a practicing pharmacist since 2004, and I...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/pharmacyfox/452752Sometimes I wonder what in the world people are thinking, and where they learn to behave in the way that they do, you know??? In the pharmacy where I work, we do over 500 prescriptions daily - it is quite busy. In the mornings, there is only one pharmacist from 8 until 11am. Well, this morning...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/pharmacyfox/452476Hello to All! I would just like to take this opportunity to introduce myself. My name is Marcie, and I am a pharmacist for a large retail pharmacy. I have been practicing since 2004, but have been working at the same place since 1995 - wow, almost 12 years now! I have basically worked my way up...
