Looking at G’s Facebook profile. G has 487 friends.

Me: She has more friends than me
B: That means she has more friends than me too
Me: Like, more than double yours … what a social butterfly
B: More like … social …
Together: Moth.

Humbada Mean Girls.

Cool.

I need my whole folder perfectly arranged by tonight and the ring binders are all stuck together and won’t budge so I can’t access any of my notes.

I think I’ll try throwing it across the room.

It worked!

Dispensing time. B WHERE ARE YOU. I’m getting started first.

I have a sickening feeling that labels printed outside uni are not acceptable. I should’ve considered that last Monday. Now I have like four scripts with Greenwood Plaza and Kirribilli pharmacy stickers. And tomorrow is the exam so I don’t think I’ll have time to re-print them.

What to do, what to dooooooo!

“Dear Stephen

The last lecture was not a learning topic for your subject – I indicated in previous weeks that it was purely a debrief and discussion for preparing for exam. It will NOT be placed on webCT. Kindly refer to your friends for finding out what was discussed if you made the choice for not coming for what I am sure were over-riding circumstances.

Kind regards
Bandana”

I’m never emailing Bandana. I fear that her response after finding out I’ve only been to one lecture all semester may be brain-haemorrhagingly sarcastic.

M and I played nearly the same games during high school, and a bit of uni. Except he didn’t play Warhammer and I didn’t play Ragnarok.

He said how funny would it have been if like, we walked past each other on WoW.

I doubt we would have teamed. He took one night to get to level 46. When I quit WoW after several weeks I was level 31. I do remember teaming with this girl who kept telling me she’ll be back in five minutes because she had to feed her baby. It never occured to me as odd until now.

I wouldn’t be surprised if I played M in Gunbound. He was one of those idiots who created chicken accounts when really he was a wand.

While waiting for J to drive to Burwood through peak hour traffic I was chatting to M and his managing pharmacist about customer experiences. She said doesn’t working in a pharmacy just make you hate people? I said yes it really does. The majority of customers are really nice, but the few kooky ones totally shift your perception of the world.

This is my wishlist of customer do’s and don’ts. I’m working right now, so this list will compile :)

Don’t:

  • Pay for something that costs less than $5 with a $50 note
  • Take so long deciding what you want that I forget you’re still in the store (I timed a woman once, she left 35 minutes later without buying anything)
  • Ask for a product recommendation, then point and say “what about this one?” If you wanted me to recommend you something I would have picked what I believe is the best
  • Pay for something before deciding whether or not you’d rather the other brand
  • Let your kids urinate on our staff (it’s happened!)
  • Specifically ask to speak to the pharmacist if all you’re doing is dropping off a script
  • Mind me if I have food in my mouth when you approach me while I’m eating lunch
  • Throw money at me
  • Get angry if I ask to see your Asthma Card or ask you how often you use your reliever
  • Expect NRT to be a miracle
  • Ask me to recommend you colours of nail polish. Have some individuality
  • Decide to have your ears pierced and then start crying when I take out the piercing gun

Please, for the love of God:

  • Listen to my counselling regarding S3 products. I don’t care if you’ve taken these tablets your whole life, if you screw up and I haven’t counselled you it’s going to be my fault
  • Pick up after the mess your unsupervised child makes of the store
  • Ask me if you can’t find something instead of refusing my help and then spending half an hour wandering around before finally swallowing your dumb pride
  • Tell me that you don’t want a bag before I bag all your purchases
  • Give me your prescriptions before you browse so I can dispense them while you shop
  • Organise your prescriptions to avoid too many owing scripts
  • SpeakĀ if you want my attention and I’m in the middle of something. If I’m concentrating I won’t be looking up every few seconds to check the counter
  • Stop having unprotected sex. We’re ordering truckloads of Postinor-1 and still running out. Have you not learnt about HIV?
  • Know what other medications the elderly person for whom you’re buying cold and flu tablets is currently taking

Will be updated … weekly? Shiftly? Regularly.

We spent all of yesterday afternoon making Derek’s birthday videos. Not that it was long, but we had at least 10 takes of the embarrassing 50 cent thing.

Actually now that I think about it, my surname rant video had 19 takes.

Anyway, people are telling me to go to Derek’s as Chun Li. I google imaged Chun Li cosplay. She’s so BUTCH.
