Grey, miso day, v wet..snow gone for us..

I had a mega run in with them over this. I am a trained nurse so here is just as realistic a way to do pharmacies.

Q What do you recommend for symptom x
A Take tablets xyz they are very effective
Q Oh I have some of these in my house it is just I had forgotten what they were for.

I reckon by doing some research there are around 5,000 of this pharmacy shop. 5,000 x say £4 to purchase the product is a sales turnover of £20,000 for this pharmacy offsetting the costs of paying for the MS.
The only weapon we have with RE is not to do these visits. If you do you are in effect saying to RE.....It is OK to treat us like dummies.

Also I am 5ft and only just over 8 st. I am not in any way overweight. It would be highly irresponsible of a pharmacist NOT to advise me I don't need to lose weight.

I have 2 TNS big and small blue supermarkets this weekend. I already accessed the workpacks but only had a brief glance. Now when I click on my visits and click on the name of the supermarket the link isn't coming up so no way of accessing the briefing notes or to report the results. This new system of theirs is rubbish.

Well my delivery has got 2 minutes to get here or they're late. Incredibly annoying as I have lots of things to get done today!

Must agree with HP. A 44 question report and what looks like a potentially long drawn out scenario. Not for me.

I looked at these too and said no thanks! It just isn't worth it for a product that won't get used. Now if it was for indigestion remedies, that might be different. I could have tied it in nicely with the restaurant I did last night - it was rank. There was so much oil that the fish was swimming around in it. Sent it back and the replacement was as bad as the first :eek:. Trouble is that the restaurant has removed one main course from the bill entirely so it looks as if only one was ordered . Bet I get more than one query from that one

i often get blocked sinus so i am happy to get this product although i'm sure it isn't any better than the 99p one ffrom boots hopefully will be able to buy something else with whats left unlike when i bought the gel stuff. i have loads of paracetamol from when i did the esa children cold scenario as they refused to sell it and you had to buy something cheap to get a receipt.

I have sinus bother so I took some of the jobs in places I'm passing anyway.

I've done the weight loss thing before and just casually looked at the counter display and said "oh my Mam was just on about that the other day, is it any good?" and gone through the scenario that way.

Hi everyone,

Hoping someone else may have experienced this i did a pub job for RE on Thursday payment was pending all fine then it vanished from the pending on Friday lunchtime and has not appeared in the Due yet. I rang RE financial queries on Friday but they said it just takes time for the computer to update the system. Not happy about this i don't like disappearing money. Kind of sad that RE are getting clients from other companies as well they offer lower rewards and their system is not as friendly. I guess they can offer them cheaper though as they know someone will do them.

I get my regular and my OH's prescription from that chemist. They're gonna have a good laugh as many of them do stints in various *** pharmacies. Gonna turn into a burger receipt kind of job.
