new grad trying to navigate retail pharmacy

Today has kicked my ass

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

🗣️ Just because you have insurance, and the medication is “covered” does not make the prescription free!!

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

Why is it that in film/tv shows the government/military always makes the dumbest decisions and sh*t gets worse. They just re-released Pennywise to “save the country”. I’m exhausted #WelcomeToDerry

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

Chile someone called to say he cured his MRSA infection with organic jalepenos. 🫩 I’m tired

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

I wish we had more veterinary pharmacies cuz I’m tired of vets not giving us their DEA number. You don’t have an NPI. I can’t add you into the system without some type of license.

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

I’m working out regularly and losing weight. Nutrition is still a work in progress. But my blood pressure has never been this high. 😭🥲 Damn you genetics

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

Why do yall bring your mail order problems up to retail and act like I can wave a magic wand to reverse an already processed and shipped claim?!!

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

This new update three letter launched is GARBAGE!!!

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

If you are calling in more than 3-4 prescriptions, you should be required to either e-prescribe or provide hard copies. I just took 22 VERBALS. This is how my morning started. Haven’t touch QT or QV

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

Why are so many patients prescribed benzodiazepines for anxiety but have no ssri or snri on the profile?

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

Come to the conclusion that my bupropion dose is not strong enough 🤦🏾‍♀️

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

Had my performance review yesterday. Got a raise and they want me to stop floating and be a staff pharmacist.

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

Pt calls: I need my benzo
Me: It’s 4 days too early
Pt: If I come to the store will you fill it?
Me: No

Proceeds to still come to the store 🤦🏾‍♀️

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

Whose doctor wants us to order brand name Diflucan for a one time dose???

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

I gave close to 75 vaccines in 4 hours. Meanwhile the rest of the pharmacy was 32 pages behind. #Jokes

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

Just had my first racist patient!! Calling me all kinds of slurs

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

We are literally drowning at work today

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

Jesus, the store I floated at had a new street name and now their supplier won’t deliver their C2s. Apparently it’s been 2 weeks. I didn’t open the safes at all today

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

Upon reconstitution, Arexy can be colorless to pale brown??? That’s quite the variation

[Dr. Professor Patrick 💊 @BuckeyePHARMer]

Makes no sense how I’m reconstituting NINE bottles of clindamycin and dispensing 14 tabs of moxifloxacin for the same patient. Can you swallow pills or not!?
