script count: 385.

With Courtney gone, floaters will be regulars in our store the next few weeks...or however long it takes to hire a new assistant pharmacist. As a closer, this impacts me the most because I am forced to spend the latter part of my shift alone with someone unfamiliar with our store. More times than not, it turns out okay but there is always that fear that the evening will be a nightmare.

Tonight was one of the smoothest evenings I have ever experienced. Was it slow? No. It was an average Tuesday with an ending script count of 385. The last few hours consisted of one clerk (until 8 pm), one technician, and one pharmacist. It was perfect - everyone knew their role. I could not have asked for a more organized night, which is an extreme rarity at our store.

I never thought I would admit this, but there are actual times I do enjoy my job. It is almost as if there is a sense of accomplishment at the end of the night. Shh, do not let Dawn know.
