My pharmacy (Walgreens) put the wrong prescription label on my prescription.

It really depends on how often this happens and other extenuating circumstances. Everyone makes mistakes and sometimes they somehow get through every step of verification. Techs and pharmacists are already getting fucked over daily at retail stores. "Literally any mistake and you're fired!" will not improve things.

I do know we fired someone at our pharmacy because they literally kept pouring pills back into other medication bottles somehow. Thankfully never left the pharmacy like that. She wasn't overworked or anything, just woefully incompetent.

i will bow to your expertise, but i'm not going to lie, that's kinda terrifying. i'm not necessarily saying one mistake should be fireable, but the staff can't do everything possible to minimize those mistakes if they don't get reported.

TC should notify the pharmacy, get it resolved, and move on with their life. Let it be handled internally.

ok, i admit i didn't word that very well, but this is basically what i was trying to suggest.

Boom! That's right, this is all happening! You cannot change the channel now!
You know me, I'm a big fan of subtlety. But that's downright cryptic.
