with service like this who needs enemies


When I think about the time I waste in my life I’m pretty sure a huge amount of it is spent trying to pick up prescriptions from our local pharmacy.

On more than one occasion, I’ve turned up to collect one only to be told that nothing under that name was delivered  from the village surgery whereby a wild goose chase ensues in a bid to locate the elusive list of medical needs.

On others it has been mislaid although there’s definitely a record of it arriving and I’m left standing for ages as the blame is passed from pillar to post before they even think about sorting the error out for me.

So to hear “ oh yes it’s definitely here , it’ll be ready for you this afternoon “ about the latest one 24 hours previous to picking it up was really quite amazing .

However I should’ve known better than to be lulled into a false sense of security as 24 hours later I ended up waiting 15 minutes for medication that hadn’t been bagged up let alone put on the collection shelf yet.

With service like this I suppose it’s lucky none of us suffers from anything life threatening really!
