Throwing The Medicine Out With The Bath Water
Customer: “I need a refill on my pills.”
Me: “You got a ten-day supply of your benzonatate two days ago. You can’t get a refill yet.”
Customer: *Deep sigh.* “It doesn’t work anyway. I put them in my bath for two days, and I’m still coughing.”
Me: “You took them while in the bath?”
Customer: “Duh! I’m not gonna put them in the water and not have a bath, am I?”
Me: “Ma’am, this is medication you take orally. They’re not bath beads.”
Customer: “Huh. No wonder I still have that cough.”
