what a surprise, josh can't read.


He said he tried to obey store policy:

our policy allows pharmacists to step away from filling a prescription for which they have a moral objection. At the same time, they are also required to refer the prescription to another pharmacist or manager on duty to meet the patient's needs in a timely manner

Arteaga said there were other workers available who should have processed the transaction. According to her, there were two other employees in the pharmacy at the time -- both of whom were assisting other customers.
.


And state law:

Currently, Arizona law allows pharmacies to refuse to process prescriptions for religious or moral reasons.


Now. I dont understand what his moral reasons werw but under current policy and law, he technically did nothing wrong. He probably should have done it and id love to hear his reasoning but since he didnt break any rules, he doesnt deserve termination
