Phone calls

17:55... 5 minutes to closing time. starting to wrap up. Order sent. Verifying done. Cleaning done.


Beep beep


Phone rings. You think "bollix"


But your duty of care is to the patient so against your better judgement you pick it up and answer, "Hello xxxxx Pharmacy". And if you are really unlucky you will hear the most pointless question of all:


"Are ye still open?"


Are they for real? Obviously we are still open. Who the fuck is answering the phone if we are not open? How tempting is it to hang up at this point?
