...today, not so much. I had a prescription called in and initially,
at the drive-thru got instant response and sent the payment. Then the
waiting began. After it had been about ten minutes or more a crabby old
battle axe in the car behind me came up and started questioning me. Like
I enjoyed sitting there forever waiting for my prescription. She asked
insulting questions and I was dummy enough to answer instead of telling
the old crab it was none of her blankety blankety business. After an
additional seven minutes a guy comes on and says someone will be with me
in a moment, not pausing to take a comment from me. RUDE! Then another
seven minutes or so later the original ding dong came on as if it was an
entirely new transaction, saying, "Hello? I mean..." She did that
twice. She then apologized and told me she'd been all over the store.
Really? With my money just left hanging? THAT'S not cool. FInally she
came back and informed me that my prescription and change were on the
way and again apologized, saying a situation had come up "I had to be
involved with."
For the second month, at least only one lane was open at the drive thru.
Normally,
I've had good experiences at Walmart Pharmacy. I mean, as good as you
can over-paying for stuff the doctor says you'll die without. Sometimes I
wonder. What IF I went off meds. Shut up. I'm not on mental meds. I'm
not, really!

Examine the Evidence
In a court of law, there are rules of evidence. Author, Josh McDowell used these rules to examine the existence of Jesus of Nazareth and His claims to be Diety (God) the Son of God, born of a virgin, crucified on a cross, physically risen from the dead, all examined according to the rules of evicence. As it turns out, there is more proof the Jesus the Christ, the Messiah, Yeshua is exactly Who He says He is in the Bible, get this, than there is for the existence of Abraham Lincoln. But don't take MY word for it. I highly recommend this book, especially in light of the counterfeit belief systems the enemy of your soul has out there to confuse you.

Unemployed and NOT Loving it
Well, I've been in effect, out of a job (unemployed) for over two years now. There WAS a little six week period from late November where I tried my hand at selling in a call center and failed miserably. I had heart palpitations in doing so and my doctor said that was indication enough that I had no business trying that.
You always run into people who ask the insulting question, "Well, have you been looking?" They can't conceive that there really are no jobs out there.
Early on I did as suggested and looked for work delivering pizzas for every pizza place you can imagine and so I continue. They told me to go to their website and I have applied and continue to several times a week at every major pizza outlet and every non-national, private one I can find.
The funny thing is that even someone who criticizes the jobless rate acts as if these jobs have people on street corners begging people to apply. This is NOT the case.
But people continue to judge and site how they worked jobs that didn't pay well and manual labor jobs. That's all well and good and I'm proud of them, but when you become disabled as I have, there are real limits as to what you can do. Another one was clerking at a convenient store. Same story. I am on the roster and apply weekly at Sheetz, Kangaroo, and all the others to no avail, but I continue to do so and continue to get accused of not trying. in subtle and not so subtle ways.
The Social Security folks, by the way say there's no way you can be applying for disability while at the same time looking for a job. Even so, I've applied every where I can think of and some where others have suggested. I know what I've done and am doing.
