Happy Halloween, everyone!  
I like the new look! Very...orange. And pretty! Can we expect something similar for Christmas?

Fortunately, none of us are obligated to do the same. 
Viv, to answer your question: Queen Gorgo for a party (the costume was great, the party not as much), and a much more work-appropriate pirate earlier today.

I didn't dress up this year. Mostly because I didn't have time to find a costume, and I was busy working on my novel I've been meaning to write and working on a term paper, and then figuring out what to talk about in my speech class.

| I dressed up as Mother and Stroller-Pusher of Cute Little Fairies Who Deserve Candy Thank You. It was a hit. |

 You are of the "I needs my Vicodins" brethren too? Right on.

Just a recent initiate, but yes, I am "the girl who sells me my drugs". I've learned a lot about people since being hired, though. Examples:
If you can smell them before you see them, don't expect them to be nice.
If they're picking up controlled substances/narcotics, don't expect them to be nice *or* patient.
If they're over a certain age, expect them to either be so sweet you want to take them home to replace your less-favorite grandma or a complete and intolerable fucktard whom you would never miss if they were used as Fellbeast biscuits.
How long have you been in the trenches Vlad?

I started pre-HIPAA, if that tells you anything. 
I've counted so much Vicodin that I still remember the NDC for the generic we used at a store I left over a year ago, if that tells you anything more.
I think it's been about six years, give or take - can't remember exactly when I started helping out in the pharmacy as opposed to the front of the store, but needless to say I stayed. I'm no longer doing mainstream retail now (I escaped to specialty! Woohoo!), but it kept me going for a long time and it got me where I am now (where I have a chair, and my feet no longer hate me  ).
Another thing to be learned about people:
Many of them will talk to you about getting their "sugar pills" for their "diabeetus". You will want to slap them. You will also want to slap Wilford Brimley for being in those Liberty Medical ads and convincing an entire generation of people that "diabeetus" is actually a word. And no matter how many times you pronounce "diabetes" correctly in the presence of your customers, they will still insist upon being inflicted with "diabeetus". It will cause you pain at first, but eventually that will subside into a nice, comfortable numbness (possibly aided by the immense amount of Vicodin dust you will have inadvertently inhaled by that time).
