cellioDear Giant Eagle pharmacy,
When I filed a prescription with you yesterday, we established that I was already in your database. (This is not my only active prescription.) Nonetheless, you took my phone number and address, writing them directly on the prescription. I said I would return today.
I was, therefore, quite surprised to find, when I got to the head of a non-trivial line, that you had not prepared my order because you wanted to see this year's insurance card first. You could have called, you know. Or filled it but required the card before handing it over. (There would have been no waste if you'd had to rescind it.)
I think when my office moves and you're no longer across the street from where I work, I'll be transferring my prescriptions elsewhere. My previous pharmacy never pulled that stuff. Alas, my previous pharmacy lacks parking and is no longer within walking distance of my job (or home).

But this does remind me of when I was trying to buy toothpicks once, and after (unsuccessfully) looking in the aisles the cashiers told me to look, I approached the woman behind the deli counter and asked if they had any toothpicks. She pointed to the meats displayed in the fridge and said, "What you see is what we have." Needless to say, I walked out. The store (a Weis, in Gaithersburg, MD) was out of business within the next year. Go figure...
