Ok, I don’t know which Pharmacy you work at but I have a feeling I would have a blast working beside you as a Tech. I work part time at a CVS in Ghetto land where NOBODY pays for shit. God forgive if they have to start to pay $3. But they have money for Wigs, Fingernails, Cell Phones and whatever else you can imagine to look like whores. Most of them have so many kids with all different names that the Moms don’t even know which last name their kids are under.

I got one of the plans we take for welfare to accept my chain brand of childrens’ chewable vitamins WITH iron from the insane doc who prescribed the iodine, and when I opened the bottle and smelled them, I was pleased to discover that, not only were they vomit-colored, but also rancid-smelling. Needless to say, they have not been refilled.

I’d prefer they come in sharp, poorly tasting objects myself.

I wonder if they could make them tuna flavor?

Ya know what Sara? I think I’m cool with that.

Would you ever throw something at a customer that was berating me? To defend my honor?

If yes, you should come to work for me because based on the swear and anger in your post, I think we’d get along great!

Yes, I am a single mom.
I work full time as a pharmacy technician, have been at current place of employment for near 3 years.
I pay my dues..
And my daughter is on medicaid.
Mind you, I was 100% honest about EVERYTHING.. and she qualifies. That being said, I think the last time I used her state benefits, was for some eye drops for pink eye,back last July. In fact, the last 3 prescriptions were for pink eye.
In fact, I never realized until I worked back in the pharmacy that Medicaid pays for vitamins.. or infants tylenol.
I could have saved some money.
But somehow, it just doesn’t seem right to use medicaid for items that don’t require a prescription.. (shrugs) maybe it is just me.
Because everyone else does the above.. gets the tylenol, gets the vitamins, the iron supplements.. and their kids are on at least 4-5 different meds..

Sometimes I wonder if I should bother having her on medicaid, but then remember since her sonofabitch father is worthless, and it costs almost $50 a week for both of us on my insurance.. why the fuck not. She qualifies by default under state law, and goddamit, I pay towards it with taxes. So that is my asinine thought for today.
