So, unlike my fearless pharmacy friend Phrusterated (hot hot alliteration points) the crappiest part of my day was at approximately 8:55pm. A man comes jogging into my pharmacy with a kid in tow (whom he tells to go "SIT DOWN!") and says to me: "ohthankgodyou'restillopenireallyneedaprescripiton!" uhh...what. Since he is at the pick-up window, under the giant sign that says "PICK-UP" I ask what his name is, and he replies "ohnononoihavethisscripti'mdroppingoffineedrightnow...." so gritting my teeth i usher him over to my drop-off window and he shoves a script in my face and demands that we fill this now and my other pharmacy had a problem with it because its 4, er, I mean 3 days early that's okay I can still get it right? Oh silly, silly man.
First, as if the rotting teeth and the cracked-out speech impediment wasn't enough, the script for Suboxone was really just the icing on the cake. My friend Phrusterated doesn't even carry this, whereas I dispense probably a good 100 on any given week.
If you're wondering whether I filled it, the answer is, of course, NO. Your other pharmacy wouldn't fill it for you because of aforementioned early-ness, why the fuck would I? I know, the law states blahdy blahdy blahdy blah go fuck yourself. Our policy is to the day, or 1 day early if we really like you. I don't know why the guy even told me it was early, because I would have most likely filled it, seeing as it would have been cash and I would have had no idea that he was getting this from somewhere else.
So I write on the prescription "4 days early 11/06/07" while he's screaming "DON'TWRITEONTHATI'LLSUEYOUWHYAREYOUPEOPLESOGODDAMNUPTIGHTJESUS" and send him on his merry way with his 4-year-old child. Just the kind of story to make you warm and fuzzy inside. Poor kid, god help him.

People do offer up the strangest information, even when you do not ask for it! I just made a post about one who offered me a website where I could "search" for doctor's DEA numbers. This is while I was typing a script for her mother's oxycodone.
