Bullies are a pain, and for some reason I get a lot
of them.
I am, in my own mind at least, the nicest, sweetest,
most professional person to walk the planet. But I
can't get a delivery of an out of stock medication
at 3:00am, and I can't call somebody from the insurance
company to go into the office and OK your prescription,
and frankly, I am not afraid of the store manager either.
(Maybe this only applies to the job market today, but
it's in my favor and I would rather keep my license
than anybody's goodwill.)
In spite of which, one woman turned up with a prescription
for a drug that was out of stock, and when I explained
that I couldn't fill it, she said, "You'd better have
it!" It wasn't clear what the penalty would be.
I'll admit to having been a lot more intimidated by
a man who was upset because I couldn't transfer his
girlfriend's prescription from another store while
the computers were doing their nightly back-up –
but at least he had the decency to storm out without
breaking my nose.
Be thankful for small favors.
