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 UR_xProbablyR_xight. The pharmacy of the future where we provide “Meds & Counsel without Patience for Patients.”

Hypothetically . . . ? 

[Rph]: “Somebody check to see how many Narcan we have on the shelf, please.” 
[Tech]: “Hey, Roger, if you were offered $50,000, would you use a Narcan, then chug a full bottle of promethazine with codeine?” 
[Tech 2]: “Is this a hypothetical question, or are you secretly—” 
[Tech 3]: “I’m with you, Lesley.  I think we might have a future serial killer in our midst.” 
[Rph]: “Where do you come up with these questions, Harrison?” 
[Tech 2]: “Yeah, they come out of nowhere.” 
[Tech 3]: “Apropos of nothing, he says his name is Harrison.  But I’m sure it’s Hill or Harry or Hac or Huddy.” 
[Rph]: “All I Wanna Do.  I’m surprised you’re old enough to know that song, Fred.” 
[Tech 3]: “I’m not.  Sheryl Crow’s my mom’s favorite.” 
[Tech 2]: “And how do you determine the money on offer?  I mean, I think you’ve used 50K a lot in the past, but sometimes it’s less, sometimes more.” 
[Tech 3]: “I got one.  For $50,000 would you let a snail follow after you for the rest of your life, and if it ever touched you, you’d have to kill yourself by, umm—what’s that Japanese suicide by disembowelment called?” 
[Tech]: “Hara-kiri.” 
[Tech 3]: “No, that’s not it.” 
[Tech]: “Also called seppuku.” 
[Tech 3]: “Seppuku!  Yeah, that’s it.” 
[Tech 2]: “You know what?  You both sound like serial killers!” 
[Tech]: “So let me rephrase.  How much would you need to be paid to use a Narcan, then . . .”
