Quote of the Day: Not Always Right
Observed at a pharmacy:
Customer: “...and then can you pick up [Name] from school? Or do you want me -- Hang on, I’m at the front of the line.” *to pharmacist* “Here’s my prescription, ID, insurance data. Need anything else?”
Pharmacist: “Just give me a minute to read through this.”
Customer: *on phone* “So, anyway, about the groceries. Why is taking --”
Pharmacist: “Excuse me?”
Customer: “Oh, hang on.” *to pharmacist* “Sorry, I know it’s rude to talk on the phone, but --”
Pharmacist: “No, no. Your prescription. It says ‘cheese, yogurt, chunky peanut butter.’”
(There is a pause.)
Customer: *on phone* “I think I know why it’s taking you so long at the grocery store.”
