Mind-Numbing Attachment
I’m having attachment in the pharmacy near my house for the next two weeks, and the thing I’ve dreaded to happen have happened; it’s so bloody monotonous!! Ok not as bad as it sounds but yeah, there is nothing to do but entertaining stubborn customers!
Initially when I encountered such customers @ patients who refused to meet the doctors despite having some chronic diseases, I felt like crying with them; for their pain and misery. I always thought that they can’t really afford the treatment, and so that is the reason they are not seeking for treatment. But now, all I want to do is SLAP them!! Each and every one of them!
The excuse for not even meeting a doctor is because they think the doctors do nothing but give medications, and not really treat them. But hello!! What do they expect? To take one tablet and all possible disease which might have reached end stage to be cured? Just with one tablet?! And when you say something or counsel them, they automatically assume you are trying to sell something. Damn!! I never knew it was going to be this tough.
Every now and then in college we were told by the lecturers that we need to have a strong foundation as well as good communication skills, and as usual I thought that I’m gifted in that part since talking is all I do the best. Unfortunately it never occurred to me that ill have to deal with such bull-headed patients!
At the rate its going, I just wish I had the skills to push the drugs into the patient’s throat, or telling them disgusting creepy stuff about their diseases. And then and then only I think the whole treatment thingy will work.
