Consciously using the Fediverse for mental health today -- so pleez cut me some slack.
Or, you can just scroll on, if you prefer.
I AM going to name names.
My nearby local Rite Aid pharmacy sent me a letter 13 days after they closed to let me know they were transferring my prescriptions to a CVS pharmacy miles away from where I live.
The letter didn't include a phone number where Rite Aid could be reached.
When I called the Rite Aid number saved in my phone, it went directly to CVS.
The CVS voice menu had 2 options, neither of which allowed me to talk to a human -- which was what I wanted to do.
I left my phone number for a call back.
A short time later a CVS employee called me back.
But instead of listening to what I wanted to say, she kept talking over me.
Yes, I did get angry, and yes, when I finally shouted, "hold on," I was surprised by how angry I sounded.
The CVS woman said, "Don't talk to me that way"! And I could hear her hanging up as I shouted back, "Don't talk to ME that way"!
So that's a short parable about today's economy, phone menus, living under the stress of the Trump regime, and the state of customer service in the US today.
It's also your reminder that Trump can't release the Epstein files because he's implicated as a pedophile on too many of its pages, in my opinion.
Thank YOU for your attention to this matter.
I already feel better.
