Infuriating

A woman I know told me this story.
Her daughter from out-of-state was visiting her in New Jersey.
The daughter ran out of a medication she needed.

The mother visited a local drugstore with the prescription bottle, showing that it could be renewed.

The pharmacist refused. She said the drugstore didn't fulfill out-of-state prescriptions.

The mother begged. Her daughter was ill.

Said the pharmacist, "What is it about 'No' that you don't understand?"

A CVS pharmacy in Hackensack.

I get enraged whenever I think about that.
