Ooh story time from just this morning. I needed to get a vaccination for my daughter so she could keep going to school. Checked the hours on Walgreens website and saw that they opened at 8am (including the pharmacy) and got down there at about 8:15. Walked back to the pharmacy and waited at the counter for someone to greet me and when someone came over this is the convo that we had.
Employee: Yeah I think we have one dose of that left but we normally don't do vaccinations this early. (This info was not on the website at all)
Employee 2 comes over: Yeah we're real busy putting away truck and we don 't normally start those till 9:30am. Can you come back at 2:30pm?
Me: I really need to be getting her to school. Could I come back at 9:30?
Employee 2: *Hems and haws for a moment* Okay fine we can go ahead and do it. *walks away goes back to furiously putting away the truck*
After that it took less than 5 minutes to do paperwork and pay for it. Sat and waited for 15 minutes while they continued putting away the truck. When they finally got to us (there were no other customers) the vaccination itself only took about 2 minutes.
