Have you every heard the saying, “the customer is always right”? Well, not when it comes to the Hannaford pharmacy I’ve been going to in NH. I found out last month that my generic ambien medication was short 8 pills. I found this out when I tried to get it filled and I was told it was too early and could not refill it for a week. He was very rude, and kept telling me that I should have plenty of pills left if I was taking them correctly. Okay, fine, whatever, blame it on me. Well when I picked up my prescription on Friday I counted them, and I was 4 short! I called the pharmacy, spoke to a nice woman who told me to bring in the bottle. I do, explain what’s going on, and the Pharmacist was a jerk! He kept saying, “they were double counted, there were 30 when they left here.” I said, “well when I counted them when we got home and I took them out of the sealed bag, there were 4 missing.” He again argued over me, gave me the pills, and kept saying there were 30. I told him that I wasn’t there demanded the pills I should have gotten, but I did want to file a complaint against this pharmacy since it was the 2nd time it has happened. He wasn’t going to listen to it at all, and just walked away. Somewhere, someone isn’t doing their duty, or they are taking some pills out. But of course when you try to tell a pharmacy that you have pills missing that are of the controlled kind, they just don’t believe you, and treat you like crap. His attitude was inappropriate when I was being nice, and again I wasn’t asking for anything from him. I need to figure out who to report them too. Because this is ridiculous. I’ve had so many problems with them. The other Hannaford Pharmacy in Dover, that opened a few years ago was awesome. The Pharmacists and Techs were awesome, so nice and helpful. This one on Central Ave is awful. And I will be switching pharmacies because of their actions, and attitude, towards me.
I hate waiting. Right now I’m waiting to see what my ex does about his current and back child support. I’ve contacted everyone I need to about it. I have the court papers filled out and ready to be filed. My boss even suggested that I contact Carol Shea Porter’s office in regards to this. She’s our State Representative. I didn’t think I would hear anything from them, but tonight I did get a phone message from them asking for me to please call them first thing tomorrow about this. That’s right, going right to the top. I’ll keep you updated if she can help me. I’m not letting it go, that’s for damn sure.
We’re getting closer to moving. We may even move in earlier if things go right. Which makes me think that I really need to get a move on the whole packing thing!! I’ve got boxes and packing tape, now I just need to start putting stuff in them!

I’m tired just reading everything that’s going on with Stacy. Or else I’m tired from waking up at 5am due to my husband’s snoring. Then he had some sort of freaky dream and started flailing his arms and legs around. Ya, really wasn’t able to fall back to sleep after that.
J-Man had quite a bit of homework last night and as much as I love spending time with him, 5th grade math isn’t my favorite thing. He had to add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators. Ooh, fun! You can just call me the Fractionista!
Did you hear that they are looking for snake wranglers in the Florida Everglades? There are over 100,000 pythons, with some over 20 feet long. I told my husband we could chuck it all and move to Florida so he could wrangle snakes for a living, but for some reason he really didn’t want to.
Yesterday this video had J-Man laughing hysterically.
Don’t forget to join us for What The Hell Wednesday tomorrow!
If it’s Tuesday this must be Random Tuesday Thoughts. Don’t forget to link up with the Queen of randomness, Stacy.
Stacy, you need to count the pills before even leaving the store. That way they would have no defense. If they ask why, tell them in a loud voice (so all the customers can hear), that you have been shorted medication in the past.
Elle, maybe you could become the snake wrangler. I don’t know if I would allow my husband into the house if he spent all day wrangling snakes. He might have snake on him.
It’s better than having snake on me! Ewww! I don’t even like clothes that have snakeskin patterns.
Stacy – Anne said exactly what I was thinking – stand right at the counter when you pick up your medication and count the pills in front of them. That way, when they come up short again, they’ll FINALLY believe you. Something’s definitely not right with those people. Seems customer service is dead. :/ Good for you taking it up the ladder to get your ex to pay what he’s supposed to pay – he could end up in jail if he keeps it up.
Elle – my hubby tends to disturb my sleep, too. Although I’ve gotten him back at least once when he’s been snoring incessantly – I elbowed and kicked him so much one night he actually fell out of the bed. I had trouble not laughing. That video TOTALLY cracked me up – I have to show that to Princess Nagger – you should hear boisterous laughter coming from our direction soon.
