Something rotten

Oh, I always try and see the best in people

Oh and I have no doubt that there will be a few letters in the P.J. - even this week - having a go at the article itself.

So i'm reading my PJ on a rainy saturday afternoon....and reading the letters section...and its full of people writing in about the loum pharmacists article!!! just made me chuckle....and a few is a bit of an understatement..there were 5!!!!

And have you worked out who we are yet?

[bleepholder]

in all honesty i didn't pay that much attention to them all.....i just looked through the headings of the letters, i knew they would all be moaning about the article in some form or other!!

i skipped onto the jobs section at the back, whilst flicking through the other pages of course, oh and reading through the magazine that accompanied the PJ!!

Sometimes I almost (note that word - "almost") despair of pharmacists.

The public have no idea of what you do; your workload can be anything at all and you are threatened if you don't meet their targets; you have no control (unless you are one of the few remaining indies) over what you can recommend or how you can best serve your patient.

Obviously either a lot of you are completely happy with your "professional" lives or couldn't care less.

There are a number of passionate, committed people trying to drag pharmacy's nuts out of the fire for the benefit of the profession and (it amounts to the same thing) our patients.

You have all grown too used to the situation in the U.K.
