Why on earth does it take 8 goddamn hours to fill a prescription? I woulda filled it yesterday if I'd have known it was gonna be this big of a pain in the ***.

:censored::censored::censored::censored: I'm over this :censored::censored::censored::censored:.

Why on earth did you wait until you needed the meds to get them?!

 

[TransportJockey]

Ugh I'm gonna go pound my head against something heavy and solid

 

[Handsome Robb]

Why on earth did you wait until you needed the meds to get them?!

Well.

I had them for this morning and then noon. They open at 0800 and I woke up and called at like 830. I didn't realize I'd have to wait until 1830 to pick the damn things up. These prescriptions are huge. Maybe that's why it takes so long?

 

[unleashedfury]

Listen to unleashed. Lots of solid advice. <3

Unleashed has been around the block a few times... besides I love dating its kinda fun...

Well.

I think they do it to drive us insane... I had to get a script filled. of simple antibiotics and needless to say you would think I was asking for a schedule III Narcotic. they got the script called the physician to "verify" it. took all day to fill it. and then called me the next day saying they were waiting for me to pick it up... my reply was well I waited all damn day for you to fill it. you can wait for me to pick it up.. They weren't amused.

All of that for 30 pills of Amoxicillin.. Damn that stupid VD :rofl:

My issue is it is a schedule III narcotic. So thanks to all the wonderful addicts and system advisers in our world if I open my mouth one bit I get labeled a seeker.

Plus it was for a destroyed prescription so it was a duplicate so that makes it an even bigger pain in the ***. Especially when it's a week after you filled the 150 tablet Rx. I got lots of funny looks from both the pharmacy staff and others around me.

I will never keep my meds in the bathroom again. Didn't cap it while I was getting ready yesterday and knocked it off the counter and the majority of it into the toilet and he water on the floor from me getting out of the shower. The ones I had left for today and yesterday were the few that didn't get soaked on the floor or covered in poopy water. I should've called yesterday but I had enough for yesterday and this morning and I was freaking out about what my doc was going to say.

Oh the fact that I had to pay out of pocket that just added to the fun too. 140 damn dollars...I'm never making that mistake again.

Not the first time I have heard this "excuse"

 

[Handsome Robb]

Me either! Lol that's why I was freaking out so bad. Had picture evidence because of it.

I felt like a total idiot. Still do.

It takes a while for 100+ tablets to dissolve, in case you were wondering. I had this mental image of them clogging the toilet and it flooding the house, just to add insult to injury.

At least you weren't desperate enough to recover them from the toilet

>100?! Check the news for a giant fish kill, all with pinpoint pupils.

 

[Handsome Robb]

You know what's sad? There's people out there that would have. When the pharmacy told me how much it was I almost said screw it and I'll just wait for another 7 days until it can technically be refilled the way it's written and let insurance pay for it.

For real. 150 tablet Rx and according to the bottle it's a 14 day supply... :wacko: the last one before the one I spilled was 120 and it took me almost a month to go through it. That one said it was for 10 days. How do these people function taking that many narcotic pain killers daily?!?!

 

[CALEMT]

Owned one of my CAL FIRE interviews yesterday! Got the highest rank you could get, now just hoping that Governor Brown approves the 4-0 (4 people on a fire engine, CAL FIRE is currently 3-0) staffing...

Nice, good luck and congrats on rocking the interview!

I just got the call myself, I've got my Chief's Interview scheduled for that FD AO job

Right on man! I'm guessing if you own the Chief's interview then you get hired? Best of luck!

 

[Jim37F]

Pretty much yeah. From what I understand, the job offer should come immediately after the interview (not sure if on the spot or after a review process)

Project scavenger hunt to the tree swing is a go.

Now to find a kid I can pay in candy bars and soda to climb the tree and hang it for me.

[mct601]

So I get news about two weeks ago that my hospital-based employer is closing its doors. April 10th is the day. Friday I have open inguinal hernia repair. So right now I can't work, can't apply for a new job (can't pass a lift test or physical), and will have no full time job after April 10th. I kinda got :censored::censored::censored::censored: on all at once haha.

 

[unleashedfury]

Hmmmmmmm

Not to worry,, it was completely a joke,, my co workers always said I should have been a comedian vs. a EMT/Medic. I know Robb has been victim to some of my remarks... Its all in fun though.

You would be surprised,,, apparently people can eat up to 50 of them things without an issue.. I take one and I have a GCS incompatible with life. I am sure the pharmacist and the docs have heard all the excuses. I lost them, I dropped them in the toilet, I got beaten drugged ganged raped and some guy stole them. Not too long ago I was reading an article in the paper. where a woman was "calling in her mothers Pain meds" pretending to be a physicians office. since it was a Schedule III drug it was considered normal.. Needless to say the insurance company denied the payment, and they called the doctors office to find out it was a total sham....... To make it worse I know the lady its my former Lead Medic's ex wife... Small world eh?
