With great regret, We have to share this story with you...it's sad, but very true.

I was at the job yesterday evening and we had our usual craze between 10PM to midnight (and beyond...yup, I work the overnight shift!). We were wanting to sort out a coverage issue for one of our patients inside first lane of our drive-through (we'll call her Sally) while another car sat waiting in the second lane. While my colleagues were dealing using the drive-through patients, I had been on the phone having a not so happy patient. Evidently someone was here to pick-up her medications and certainly one of them wasn't ready...she said the person obtaining on her behalf was inside drive-through inside a red Bronco (take note of the last part, it's somewhat important!) So, I solved the situation using the upset patient around the phone and had considered one of my colleagues sell her prescription towards the person buying on her (to the red Bronco guy in lane 2). Meanwhile, Sally wound up coming inside to call her insurance in hopes of solving the problem. Unfortunately her insurance had expired so she finished up taking her prescriptions back (one of which was for Percocet). We continued with our work, helping patients while they came along and keeping things straight inside pharmacy. About Half an hour later, Sally called us and she would be a bit freaked out. Apparently, the red Bronco guy (who had been in lane 2 while she what food was in lane 1) came as much as her outside after she left the store and asked her if she'd purchased a prescription for any narcotic. If so, he desired to find the narcotic prescription from her. NOTE:  Narcotics are prescription medications accustomed to treat severe pain, and they also can be sold illegally on the path like a recreational drug (gets people high and happy).

The red Bronco guy had overheard the discussion between Sally and my colleague while sitting inside the drive-through. Somewhere in that conversation, the Percocet prescription have been discussed so he knew she was there to pick-up an opiate medication. Even though his business was over in the pharmacy, he stuck around inside car park until Sally arrived with the store...that's when he made his move. Luckily, Sally we had not filled/purchased her Percocet prescription - you never know what may go down if she had! It isn't likely that Sally would have been hurt, but there are actually cases like Sally's where people are actually attacked. Instead, Sally only agreed to be freaked out (rightfully so) and planned to warn us regarding the red Bronco guy. Not only can pharmacies be held up, however, you could be too - you could have what the bad person wants. If they want your medications badly enough, they could take drastic measures to get them. I don't desire to scare you as it's rare that something like what happened to Sally would happen to you - simply wanted to make sure you are cautious of your respective surroundings! If you're feeling you need more privacy at the pharmacy, please let the pharmacy staff know and I'm sure they will do what you can to satisfy your needs...besides, it may be the law! Has Sally's situation happened to you personally before? Definitely share your story because I believe how the more cases shared, the more cautious others will be!
