SENIORS UNDERSTANDING DIRECTIONS
I went to my nearby Pharmacy, straight to the back, where the Pharmacists' high counter is located.
I took out my little brown bottle, along with a teaspoon, and set them up on the counter.
The Pharmacist came over, smiled, and asked if he could help me.
I said, "Yes! Could you please taste this for me?
Seeing a senior citizen, the Pharmacist went along with my request.
He took the spoon, put a tiny bit of the liquid on it, put it on his tongue and swilled it around.
Then, with a stomach-churning look on his face, he spat it out on the floor and began coughing.
When he was finally finished, I looked him right in the eye and 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!!!"
I said, "Oh, thank God! That's a real relief!
My doctor told me to have a Pharmacist test my urine for sugar!"
I’m not allowed to go back to that Pharmacy, but I really don't care, because they aren't very friendly there anymore!

Well I'm visiting with my brother for a while. I just read this and erupted in some kind of hybrid snort and choke and hysterical laughter. This is not a dignified start to my stay here 🤣😂

Should come with a health warning - laughed so much, I ended up with a coughing fit.

I am old enough to know that’s how they used to test it!

I can't decide if you're being serious or not 😯 Surely not?!

Absolutely serious. They told us about it when I started training. They also used to look at men’s shoes to see if there was any white ‘deposit’. Doesn’t bear thinking about does it?

Wonderful, when I started reading I was expecting some worthy comment about how useful pharmacists are, I have always taken great delight, when reading mainly newspaper articles, when I have had to do a double take and wonder what they actually meant, where a comma might have been put, so that I was sure what had happened.
