This has been another frustrating week; and so in order to preserve what little is left of my sanity and to save the economy I am putting my foot down once again.
Filling a prescription should not require an act of Congress. It should also not require a translator or the use of nuclear weapons. There is no excuse for illegible prescriptions in 2012. There is no reasonable reason why it should take more than a week to remedy the situation. Medical offices should be quick to admit their error, rectify it, and apologize. Not returning phone calls does not make for good PR, nor does it aid the ailing and desperate patient.
Delivering a package is another task that should be painless for all involved. Bringing the item to the receiver as promised and WHEN promised are not complicated tasks. Delivery companies should make their policies clear and when those policies fail the very least they should offer is a live human who can answer questions. They do not offer that as an option. "Our menu has changed" is not an excuse for the endless looping and avoidance of responsibility that a call to an 800 number has become.
So...
Office managers. ESL telephone receptionists. Doctors with attitude. Lying delivery people. Anyone not doing their job to the best of their ability. All of you lazy, worthless fucks who contribute to making my life the living hell that it has been this week.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
