Meds & Counsel without Patience for Patients
Ever heard of Dick’s Last Resort? Never been to the restaurant myself, but I love the concept. It’s like the court jester in medieval times being able to tell the King the harsh truth since everything he said was in—you guessed it—jest. Why has no pharmacy taken up this business practice? If patients expect harsh but fair truth from the pharmacy team, they’ll accept it readily.
Welcome to URxProbablyRxight. The pharmacy of the future where we provide “Meds & Counsel without Patience for Patients.”
Jaanuu Scrubs
[Rph]: “Alright, everybody gather round real quick while we all have a second of peace.”
[Tech 1]: “What’s up, Roger?”
[Rph]: “Scrubs are what’s up.”
[Tech 2]: “Finally! Can’t wait to burn this blue smock.”
[Tech 3]: “Smock!? You work in a fish market?”
[Tech 2]: “What do you call it, Lesley?”
[Tech 3]: “It’s more of a coat. Like a lab coat.”
[Tech 2]: “Lab!? Do you see any Bunsen burners or pipettes?”
[Rph]: “Kay! Lesley! Save it for our patients!” “Stupid phone—put ‘em on hold, would you, Fred.”
[Tech 1]: “Thanks for calling ‘You Are Probably Right.’ Please hold. Or call back later; really don’t care.”
[Rph]: “Anyway . . . we’re trading your blue smocks, or coats, or whatever the hell you want to call ‘em, for blue scrubs.”
[Tech 2]: “Why not green?”
[Tech 3]: “Let’s do red. Nobody wears red.”
[Tech 2]: “Handmaids wear red.”
[Tech 3]: “Ohh, I love Handmaid’s Tale.”
[Tech 2]: “It’s The Handmaid’s Tale! You have no attention to detail.”
[Rph]: “For the love of God, you two! Fred, remind me never to schedule those two together again.”
[Tech 1]: “You don’t make the tech schedule.”
[Rph]: “Christ . . . can nobody take a joke.”
[Tech 1]: “How was that a joke?”
[Rph]: “Whatever. I’ll buy you each 2 sets of fancy-ass Jaanuu scrubs. Check out their site. Let me know sizes and all that by next Monday. Mix-and-match whatever styles you want . . . so long as they’re blue.”
[Tech 1]: “Just two pairs?”
[Rph]: “Two pairs not enough? Fine—you’re fired. But not until after your shift ends.”
[Tech 1]: “Now that’s how you tell a joke!”
