So so so torn...

A little back story. I left this pharmacy in the great midwest. It was a fun pharmacy, everyone got along great. The pharmacists were fast and friendly. I moved out here in the hell hole I am in now. No one knows how to do anything. My pharmacy manger is super super nice and laid back and can deal with customers but has NO idea what even happens with all the fricking paperwork that piles up in the pharmacy that they throw into boxes. Some of the stuff you dont even need to keep anymore but of course he just keeps it all there. Sooo Irriating. Im ready to throw all the crap away. I moved into a slower store with just barlely enough tech help. Today I find out that the pharmacist that hates life is being transfered. That kind of makes me want to stay because when you work with a person that hates life its not worth working. The person that they want to replace isnt sociable. Thats A HUGE deal to me. I am sociable, super sociable. Sometimes I act like I have no idea what is going on back there because Im sick of being the only one dealing with all the crap going on. We are a compounding pharmacy also. No one knows how to fricking compounding (entering it into the system). Today, somone didnt pick up their tamiflu susp. Its good for 35 days so i decided to use that to fill another one. I noticed that it was entered wrong because the name of it was TAMIFLU SUSP. It should of been the generic name with the cherry syrup or orasweet sf in the title. So just for shits and giggles I looked up the recipie we used. Holy clusterfrack. It was made WRONG! completely wrong. I am just thinking what would of happened if that went out. What would of happened. No one would of ever figured it out because of course there is only the one check by the pharmacist and he did it all himself. Seriously, what the hell. So I fixed the problem, got rid of that what was made and fixed the script and put it back in the profile. What are people thinking. Im sick of cleaning up after everyone. Back home it was kinda like that, I was in charge of alot of things, but it didnt bother me that much because I had alot of fun at work. The one thing that I cant stand here is not having a set schedule. I work crazy shifts all over the place and not one thing is constant. Back home, I worked the same schedule everyweek and it never changed unless I switched with someone. I never had to look at the schedule. It was a nice thing to relay on. Also what pisses me of fhere is that there is no chance of overtime ever! if you work ot then you get written up. It sucks. I try to train people but end up getting screwed over beyond belief so Im in a If it gets done it does ( Relating to paperwork and crap that needs to be filed etc...) So I am debating wheater or not I should move home next month or not. Its a big decision that I need to make because as of right now the Pros of living here are NOT outweighing the CONS.If I do move back home then the onlything I need to worry about is pretty much nothing.

A little rant of my life

So I fell a little behind, dang, i will follow up more.

So California people are the devil.

I was being midwest nice when I fax dr. offices. I usually will say hello or hey when I fax them and always say thanks because usually it is something like having them do a prior auth which are pains in the butt to do so why not be nice.
I received a call from a nurse at the doctor office freaking out because how was she able to give that to the doctor it was way too unprofessional. So instead they want me to be direct and rude. I always included the id number and the correct number for them to call. Now I let them do the hunting. They can look that information up because I dont care. Before i would say Hey, this needs a prior auth, here is the Id number 32465479546546 and number to call 1-800-bigpharma or switch to omeprazole thank you. Screw helping them out if they want to be asses. Now a normal fax from me is. Do a prior auth, insurace doesn't cover. Short and sweet. Im done being nice. I get the drug addicts calling me freaking out because they pop too many pills and they want it now. How do doctors get away with prescribing all of these stupid crazy amounts of drugs?

My favorite people is this one family
Child about 15 years old
Mom
Dad

All three get SIX bottles of the Lortab Elixer.

Six freaking bottles. EACH!

They come in the drive thru and will open the bottle and take a swig and drive away. SERIOUSLY! Reason why people are crazy drivers here.

People wonder why health costs are so high...

Except for the ones who pay cash for Oxycontin. I love how they have thousands of dollars to pay for their freaking oxycontin that is dosed crazy. Three times daily... qid.. fid... doctors are push overs here
