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.”

B/Phuket/3073/2013-Like Virus

[Tech]: “Hey, Marianne. We got an egg allergy over here. Which flu shot can we use?”
[Rph]: “Use the Flublok, Jaycee.”
[Tech]: “Right, thanks.”
[Tech 2]: “So, Marianne, what do Wisconsin, Cambodia, and Washington have in common?”
[Rph]: “Well, I’m kinda busy, and I have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about.”
[Tech 2]: “Alright, alright. Fu-ket. Sorry.”
[Rph]: “What’d you say?!”
[Tech 2]: “Fu-ket!”
[Rph]: “Listen, Bernard. I know we don’t exactly hold our tongues here, but we can’t be using that word.”
[Tech 2]: “Yeah, I’m aware of our 7 banned words.”
[Tech 3]: “It’s pronounced Poo-ket or Poo-get.”
[Rph]: “Again—kinda busy! Wanna hurry up and tell me what the hell’s going on, Kay?”
[Tech 3]: “Flu shots—the 4th strain originated in Phuket.”
[Tech 2]: “What do Wisconsin, Cambodia, and—”
[Rph]: “—and Washington have in common? Got it.”
[Tech]: “Speaking of flu shots, you mind giving this one?”
[Rph]: “Ahh, that’s right. I almost Pho-got.”

me what those other 6 words are?]
