every time I have gone to them with a script for something they did not have in stock, the response was, "Wow, sorry we don't have it in stock currently, but we will order it and get it to you ___day."
Yeah, this. I don't expect every possible brand of every possible drug, any more than expect every book in print to be in a bookstore -- but there are ways you can act that show concern for the customer getting their script filled, and ways that are just acting callous about the whole notion of, well, health
care.
Fill My Pills NOW!
Don't let ideology trump sound science — join our Fill My Pills Now campaign today and urge corporate pharmacy chains to adopt a pro-women’s health policy that will fill prescriptions on site, without discrimination or delay.
With a link on how various pharmacies rate.
Also, x-posted from Natter, becase I forgot that Bitches was where the discussion was taking place:
I know a young woman who has the misfortune to have contracted genital herpes.
She is on a daily regimen of Valtrex to prevent symptoms from manifesting themselves.
Recently she took her prescription to a pharmacist who was apparently a fundamentalist Christian.
Not only did he refuse to fill the prescription, but he tore it up and handed it back to her, saying, "God is punishing you for your sin."

Why, oh, why am I still awake???
I do not know, vw. I was just wondering the same thing. Insomnia is no fun.
I
know
why I'm not asleep - I'm having a period of free-floating anxiety.
Soon I will take a hot bath - sometimes that helps.
I'm Miss In Bed By 9 p.m. At The Latest.
I'm gonna pay for this tomorrow.
Because someone has to entertain me?
That is, depending on how well off you are you can choose to skip some products or vendors that are bad for the environment/society/humanity/etc. But the problems are structural. Just about everything is made in a harmful way one way or the other.
Yeah, it is structural, but pre-budget, I was SO used to being able to choose the least harmful option, and I'm just always amazed at how much it costs (at least in Seattle) to do that.
Because someone has to entertain me?
I took a 4 hour nap this afternoon. I suspect I will be here to do that for a long time.
I'm all disappointed.
I saw White Christmas - the Musical tonight. It has some songs that aren't in the movie/soundtrack, but there is no soundtrack for the musical. BUT I WANT IT!
t / temper tantrum
I am not sleepy. because we stayed in bed 'til 11 this morning. And I did a whole bunch of stuff. DH is impressed. But I know I've not been sleeping as well as I should, because I have been tired by 10, and that isn't usual. After DH gets out of the bath , It is my turn. and I am still hopeing to turn out the lights before 11. We shall see.
