No, I don't mind being your private secretary

Every pharmacist who's been around awhile has heard "my doctor won't call you, he says he's too busy, you should call him" followed by calling and being put on hold for ten minutes. It's happen so many times it's hard to get the energy to even get appropriately annoyed anymore. But what's worse is the patient who says "I'm think I'm getting sick, can you call my doctor and tell him to prescribe me something?" No problem, I'm sure your doctor is going to say "Mr. Fleeber is sick? Give him an antibiotic right away!" If you want me to call for your dinner reservation, let me know that too.
