Hi all.
I just read this and had to share it with you.
This is what Marilyn writes.
Seniors don't Always Understand Directions
I went to my nearby CVS Pharmacy, straight to the back, where the
Pharmacists' high counter is located.
I took out my little brown bottle, along with a tea- spoon, and set them up
on the counter.
The Pharmacist came over, smiled, and asked if he could help me. I said,
"Yes! Could you please taste this for me?
Seeing a senior citizen, the Pharmacist went along. He took the spoon, put a
tiny bit of the liquid on it, put it on his tongue and swilled it around.
Then, with a stomach-churning look on his face, he spat it out on the floor
and began coughing.
When he was finally finished, I looked him right in the eye and asked, "Now,
does that taste sweet to you? "The Pharmacist, shaking his head back and
forth with a venomous look in his eyes yelled, "HELL NO!!! " I said, "Oh,
thank God! That's a real relief! My doctor told me to have a Pharmacist test
my urine for sugar! " I am not allowed to go back to that CVS, but I really
don't care, because they aren't very friendly there anyhow! Sorry if I
offended anyone, but I laughed. Marilyn
