A Spanish pharmacist I once worked with (when i was a student):
1. Signed an unsigned prescription. And was under the impression that it was OK to do that. I, as the student she was supposed to be mentoring, explained that this was in fact illegal. Very.

2. Dispensed Tegretol Retard when the prescription called for Tegretol. Naturally, the patient became very ill.

3. Had no diplomacy skills whatsoever, and just shouted at patients when they started getting arsey.
