As for the young lady, she's gone already, it's either death sentence or life sentence.

"Just the same you ignored bitcoins at the early stage in the past and now wish you bought some bitcoins back then which would have made you a millionaire today...abi?

Foresight and risk taking is what separates the rich from the poor...now you know if you will be rich in life or remain poor considering your mindset". - Village People spokesperson.
And who told you I ignored Bitcoins??
Fallacy of assumptions

Mindlog:
I work in a psychiatric hospital during family therapy sessions with relatives of patients, some give ultimatum on when they relatives "must be cured" or they request for discharge against medical advice.

A pyromaniac or one who is struggling with schizophrenia is being admitted and relatives wants overnight transformation!
Psychiatry is one place I would mind working again, I did my internship in one of the Neuropsychiatric hospitals in the South West, though it helped me with the knowledge of antipsychotics but it's not where I would wish to work again.
I really can't relate with your experience because my job back then was just to dispense the drugs.

@bold:

But you are describing the average worker in the Nigerian workplace.

And I use 'Nigerian' because that is the only workplace I know.

It is your prejudice and negative bias towards women that is at play here.

Sure, each gender have negative traits mostly associated with them but to think gossiping, ass licking(receiving and giving) and been emotional is a woman's thing shows you are not been objective.

@emotions: it is a constantly propagated myth that women are 'emotional' and men 'logical'. Well, almost every human (male & female) are very emotional and do things because of emotions: anger, ego, insecurities, over excitement, happiness, feeling good etc.

I mostly relate with male customers at work (about 97%) and I can get them to agree to almost anything because I am a good negotiator. And I negotiate using people's emotions (OP, those are one of the things I like about my job anyways).

It is a well known fact that anyone whom you can able to his/her ego (emotions of pride, feeling better than others or on top), you will get them to do anything for you.

Tell me the gender again that you are told to 'massage' their ego to get what you want?

Yet, I will not say men are the 'emotional' gender because men & women display emotions in different ways.

There are very few people who think logically and even them use emotions to deliver the package at times.
One thing I have learnt over the years is not to associate a particular trait or behaviour to gender or tribe especially at work, if I can't take bullshit from a man, I won't also accept it from a lady because work ethics are not embedded in XX or XY chromosomes, meaning that it's not genetic.

@ Dozis, you're a pharmacist or you work in a pharmacy - it doesn't matter sha.

Your narrative had me smiling, then LoL and I haven't even finished reading.

I know exactly what you mean, I tend to do some of that when I am low on cash.

It's not intended to annoy the pharmacist attending to me, it's just me trying to get value with the small money I have grin no vex.

I hate the commute to and from my place of work, the office politics, favouritism and bosses who take it personally when staff move on to new jobs or better opportunities (na this one dey vex me pass sef, like WTF is wrong with you people? Did employees sign an agreement of till death do us part?)

The part about ampiclox, just did me in completely. cheesygrin LoL. Enjoy your day @ work, I'll look forward to the thread on abuse of drugs.
I know that the economy is biting hard on everyone and prices of essential drugs have sky rocketed but sometimes you get tired and you just want the person to go straight to the point.
Office politics is one of those things I can't stand, I once worked in a government hospital where your appraisal is 70% greeting/respect and 30% actual work input, that place pissed me off.
Have a lovely day too.

Having women as colleagues no easy oh, that's what I detest about my work .
These ladies during handover they seem to intentional leave most pending works like billing and mailing for the dying minute so as to handover, lazy gender I call them and we earn same salary, their gossip no be here, at you own peril if you stoop so low to have a discuss with them absent thought of who might hear what you said about who. seems putting the needed effort to work is a crime for them. #SMH
I don't believe it's a gender thing, because I have worked with female colleagues that are great at what they do.
God is your strength my brother.

Like the question goes,
I will start with mine, I'm a druggist.
Patient: I have this severe body pain and headache that won't let me do anything, please give me a good pain killer.

Me: (proceeds to get the "best" analgesic), you have to take this one tablet every 12 hours for 3 days.

Patient: how much is it?

Me: ₦1,000

Patient: Ah, why is it too expensive naa, just ordinary pain killer, please give me paracetamol.

Me: (speaking in my mind) why you no just walk in tell me say paracetamol you wan buy.

2nd scenario:

Patient: Pharm please I want the best antimalarial.

Me: This one is ₦1800

Patient: That's too expensive, give me the one of a lesser price.

Me (proceeds to bring another one)
This one is ₦1,600.

Patient: You don't have the one that the price is lesser than these two.

Me: (brings the cheapest) this one is "dozismartem", it's ₦250.

Patient: Are you sure this one will work, please give me that first one you said it's ₦1,800.

Me: (speaking to myself) What is the colour of your problem this morning?.

I also hate the fact that what I earn is not commensurate with the volume of books I read in school (I practically had no social life back in school and still don't have).

I hate working on Sundays and there are no public holidays because we are termed "essential workers".
Last but not all,

Patient: Please I want to buy "Beecham Ampiclox", two capsules.

Me: Please ma we don't "cut" Ampiclox, do you realise that Ampiclox is an antibiotic and you need to follow the full dosage regimen of one capsule every six hours for five days? that means you need two scahets of ten capsules each, to complete the regimen, this is to completely eradicate the bacteria and also avoid antibiotics resistance.

Patient: Two capsules are enough for me, that's how I take it, you just want to "sell more market", I for no even come here, if to say that chemist for my street don open.

Me: (by this time I'm already weak and have nothing more to say as she jejely goes to look for where they will cut two capsules for her)
And she will definitely see because we are in "competition" with Patent medicine dealers and because our healthcare system is so messed up that the profession is more regulated for the professionals than the quacks in the street, because people can actually buy prescription only medications without a proper prescription in Nigeria and because if you are a pharmacist waiting for a doctor's prescription before you can sell a drug in Nigeria, you go wait tire.
There are still more but let me stop here.
In my next thread, I will be writing about common misconception about drugs in Nigeria and how we abuse drugs ignorantly.


What do you hate about your job?

When did amnesty international becomes the one to be dictating to Nigerian government on how to deal with a terrorist group member.

Government should closes amnesty international offices in Nigeria, nobody elected them for anything. Amnesty is only known for protecting terrorists
The onus is on you and FG to prove that she is a terrorist.
It is really shameful that you can't define terrorism.
