Annoyance du jour
My daughter’s doc gave her a prescription last Wednesday. I went to Walmart — the only place I’ve found so far that will fill it — to drop it off. “We can have this ready for you on Friday,” said the pharmacy person. I told her that was fine. “We’ll call you to tell you it’s ready,” she said.
Friday came, and Friday went, and there was no call. So this morning (Monday), after I picked up my son from preschool, I went to Walmart. Waited in the slow, slow pharmacy pickup line, only to hear:
“Ummmm, this prescription isn’t in the system.”
She went to check on it. Turns out it was in the system, there was a hold on it. “But we can fill it for you, just check back in 20 minutes.”
That’s kind of what happened the last time I dropped off a ‘scrip — they said it would be ready, and I still had to wait 20 minutes for it to be filled. So we went off to kill 20 minutes noodling around Walmart.
I returned. I waited in the slow, slow line again. And then I get this:
“Ummmm, we can’t fill this prescription until Friday. It hasn’t been 30 days yet.”
And no one could tell me about this on, say, LAST WEDNESDAY? No one could have mentioned it even a mere 20 minutes ago? What the Hell, Walmart? I’ve now wasted an hour and a half of my time, not to mention the time of those behind me in the line.
I sure hope I can find another pharmacy that carries this medication. Because when I go in on Friday to pick it up and am told, once again, that I will have to wait 20 minutes, I will be taking my scrip somewhere else. I don’t mind the rules for refills. I do mind being completely jerked around, though, and if I can help it, I won’t be back.

RT @cmpriest: The longer I watched this Dubstep Cat video, the harder I laughed
@cleolinda: That is the closest anyone has come to getting me to understand wtf dubstep is.
…and the cat is a Rays fan. This explains a lot.

Dang! I missed this when I was in Munich!
(Then again, it was my honeymoon, so my attention might have been elsewhere.)
23This lipstick company is too dope.
I want to buy This Corrosion just on general principle.
Wow. The dream of the ’90s really IS alive in Portland. Also, where was this company when I was in my Gothling days?

This is the right approach. Parents, START THEM EARLY ON THE CLASSICS. ;)
