The Small Brown Bottle

The other day I went over to a nearby CVS Pharmacy. When I got there, I went straight to the back of the store to where the Pharmacists’ Counter is located. I took out my little brown bottle along with a teaspoon and laid them both onto the counter.

 

The pharmacist came over smiled and asked if he could help me.

 

I said, "Yes! Could you please taste this for me?"

 

Being I'm a senior citizen...I guess the Pharmacist just went along with me. He picked up the spoon and put a tiny bit of the liquid on his tongue and swilled it around. Then with a stomach-churning look on his face he spit it out on the floor and began coughing.

 

When he finally was finished, I looked him right in the eye asked, “Now, does that taste sweet to you?"

 

The pharmacist, shaking his head back and forth with a venomous look in his eyes yelled, “HELL NO!!!"

 

So I said, "Oh thank God! That's a real relief! My doctor told me to get a pharmacist to test my urine for sugar!"

 

Well, I can never go back to that CVS, but I really don't care though, because; they aren’t very friendly there anyway!!!
