One Day Down
March 3rd, 2008
Twenty more to go. First day wasn’t as bad as I had expected. Script volume was low, only about 260 by 5 pm. Apparently, this was unusually high for them. They were overstaffed with 5 techs and 2 pharmacists. I didn’t think such a thing exists in retail pharmacy. Their DOS system sucks ass. To make things worse, they shelve their drugs according to brands. So HCTZ tablets were under “M,” and its capsules were under “H.” Diltiazem tablets were under “C,” the ER formulations were under “D,” while the 240 mg bottles were under “T.” It took me over half an hour to find a fucking drug. I guess the idiots who developed the system decided that dealing with angry customers, insurance rejections, and prior authorizations isn’t enough. Let’s scatter the drugs around so it takes them 3 months to know where they are. Stupid! I need booze!
