Walgreens causes me trouble…go figure

Posted by The *Angriest* Pharmacist as Stupid People, True Story, Work Sucks

I had their bottle. I got all the info. It was filled once…one month ago. I had every bit of info I needed. All I wanted was to speak with someone, give them my name and my phone number. I wanted nothing more.

I called. I got a tech and put on hold. I waited five minutes.

Someone answered. I told them I wanted a copy and it would be super quick. I have all the info. I got put on hold again. I waited five minutes.

I hear ringing. A man answers. I tell him what I want. He tells me he is the Store Manager and not in the pharmacy at all. He’ll hafta transfer me back. He transfers me to the pharmacy. A tech answers, and I tell her what I want and how quick it’d be. She puts me on hold. I wait five minutes…I rock out to Van Halen.

The pharmacist answers. I tell him what I want and how quick I’ll be. He tells me his computer is locked up and puts me on hold. I wait 5 minutes. I get disconnected.

I call back. I get a tech. He tells me to hold. I wait 5 minutes. Pharmacist answers. I tell him what I want. He asks me what I need. I tell him nothing. 30 seconds later, I hang up happy.

Total time spent dicking around with Walgreens: 22 minutes, 30 seconds.
Number of prescriptions I filled with a phone at my ear: 7
Number of other calls I answered and tended to in that time: 4
Cash Price of the prescription I transferred: $5.75
Amount I want to drink: Gallons of beer

Ugh…
