I am 64 years old and lost my job. I have no insurance. I won’t be 65 until April 2010.

I am in desperate shape as far as finances.

Yeah I don’t get this 20 mintute wait time thing. I’m getting a prescription filled today at Publix and I was told it will be ready in two hours! I think that the pharmacy system is broken and no one want’s to admit it.

Wow! Only a 20 minute wait, I dream to have that again. It now takes 3-5 hours for them to fill at my pharmacy.

Can you amagine how much business a pharmacy could get if they could figure out a way to do this in 5 minutes or less. If everything was designed with that goal in mind I’ll bet it could be done. I’ll bet they could make enough money tpo pay a full staff of Pharmasist if that’s what it would take.

The 20+ minute wait times at pharmacies occur because the people who work at pharmacies, just like the person who wrote this article, enjoy wasting our time. It is a mere matter of observation. Watch the pharmacist pace back and forth with no real sense of urgency.

Case in point is the article above:
References to other professions that are completely unrelated.
Everyone knows a 30 minute oil change is fast because we see the grease monkeys hustling around the garage, real hands on work.
And what in the hell does a pharmacy have to do with a deli.

A monkey throwing darts could fill your prescription in under 20 minutes.

Hi PharmerDon! Lee Griffin forwarded your site information and here at the office we love it! Loved your tip about having your own pen at the pharmacy. That’s sort of like the phenomena of washing your hands in a public bathroom and then grabbing the nasty, dirty door handle!

We’d love for you to be a part of SCPhA!
