Rx #0000069 : Full Eight Hours

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.”

Full Eight Hours

[Rph]: “Would someone switch spots with Fred, please?  He’s been up there for almost 2 hours straight.” 
[Tech]: “I don’t mind.  I’ll can work pick-up for my whole shift.” 
[Tech 2]: “Really?  You think you can work pick-up for a full 8 hours?” 
[Tech]: “Yeah, I can do anything for 8 hours.” 
[Tech2]: “Anything?” 
[Tech]: “Okay, maybe not anything.  But I’d sure give it the ol’ college try.” 
[Rph]: “Alright you two.  Enough of … whatever this is.” 
[Tech]: “Come to my place after work, Lesley.  We’ll give it a go.” 
[Rph]: “Am I talking to myself here?!” 
[Tech]: “I’m just saying I have a pool.” 
[Rph]: “And how, exactly, does that make it any better?” 
[Tech]: “Well, it’d be a lot harder to cheat if you did it underwater.” 
[Rph]: “Underwater!  Have I been married too long?” 
[Tech 2]: “No, no, no, no, no!  Your head has to stay above water!” 
[Rph]: “I don’t, umm—what exactly are we talking about here?” 
[Tech]: “I mean, if I’m gonna hold my breath for 8 hours, it’s gotta be underwater.” 
[Rph]: “Hold your breath?!  That’s definitely not what you were talking about.” 
[Tech 2]: “Hell, I thought we were talking about treading water.  What gutter was your mind in, Roger?” 
[music]: Take off those working clothes.  Put on these high heeled shoes …” 
[Rph]: “Alright you jokesters, who’s playing Sting?” 
[Tech 2]: “Sting?  Is that the tantric sex guy?”
