thank you so much for the support. I agree Dinah that this wasn't focused at me, when I'm angry I tend to make it about me. The people I'm most concerned about are the elderly folks in the area, this market/pharmacy is across the street from some homes for the elderly and since they can't drive I really worry about them. The other day a couple of the strikers chased down a temp worker and beat him with a baseball bat- and these are the people that professional pharmacists choose to side with? I agree the pay of a pharmacist for 5 years of college isn't that great, but again the strike wasn't about salary, but rather having to pay part of their health care (like the rest of the world does).
I finally moved my scripts to a 24 hour pharmacy, but it was a lot of work getting my insurance company, doctors and pharmacy on the same page and additional costs for getting extra scripts, etc.
To the poster who said she would never return to the original pharmacy, I couldn't agree more.
take care, judy
