Who would have thunk it.

I enjoy working in a pharmacy.

Yes, I have some very mundane tasks to do, like run the register, take the garbage out, and stock the shelves, but at some point our pharmacy will hire a greater number of staff (maybe like myself AND one other person!) and I can give all those jobs to the peeon new person.

Yes, that's right I will make those job assigning decisions because I am just THAT awesome...

Anyways, things I like about work are:

Time goes by SUPER fast. Time machine fast.

I don't really have to deal with people. Like customers. I would say about 10% of my time is spent talking to customers, and after working at a place which required a constant smile strapped on my face, 10% sounds pretty wonderful.

The pills are really pretty! I know that sounds like a super drugy thing to say..."Ooohh look at all the cooolorss (drool sliding down chin)" but they are! I love to open a bottle to see what little surprises are hiding in there waiting for me. Oh look! This one is light pink! OOOOH this one is TEAL! This one looks like a tiny bastketball...how cute!

I've been forced to use my brain again. Although, I can't say I'm too thrilled to be using MATH again...percentages, what?

I get to mix crap in beakers and junk. And then mix them all together using a super fancy machine and then the medicine cream I MADE helps some little old lady with her hip pain. Pretty cool right?

I don't have to think about work after I leave. At work I'm busy and don't think about life, and then I live life and don't think about work. It's a nice trade off.

I get to wear pajamas to work...well not quite, but pretty dang close. Scrubs are my new best friends. Although, what is up with all those UGLY TERRIBLE scrubs that are out there? Ones with like teddy bears and football helmets and whateverthehell else on them? Why would anyone want to walk around looking like really tacky wrapping paper?



I like my job a lot right now, but if in three months I'm walking around sportin' a lollipops and hearts bandana to match my lollipop and hearts scrubs, someone please slap me? Okay?
