So I don't know if I am looking for commiseration or just posting this for entertainment value, but I had something crazy happen today at work. We were busy and had a bunch of prescriptions that needed to be filled STAT. Two of my techs were in a corner chatting so I went over and told them to please concentrate on filling the STATs. I didn't think I was rude or condescending or mean/unprofessional in any way, I just wanted them to focus on work. Immediately one of them starts making excuses for why she is chatting and I reply that it's fine, I just need everyone to focus on getting the STATs out of the way. She went back to work and I considered the matter closed. No big deal, we've all been there, right? I know I have had some bosses tell me to get back to work and I never thought twice about it.
So later in the day when our Pharmacy Director comes in she proceeds to go to her IN TEARS about how she doesn't feel like she can do anything right and how I make her feel unappreciated, etc etc. I actually thought that me and this tech get along great and as far as I know this is the only issue she has ever had with me. And not to get too petty, but I am by far one of the most helpful pharmacists at work, I go way out of my way to treat the techs well, buy them pizza, help them put drugs back on the shelf, etc etc. All I could think was, is this grown ass woman for real right now?!
Anyway maybe I need to start a blog but I figured someone here might get a kick out of this or think to themselves "Well at least I am not the only one". LOL
