"what if a retail space was more hostile? real get-your-shit-and-get-out vibes, like if the DMV sold easter candy 50% off 8 weeks after easter. what if the pharmacist could just decide not to sell you antibiotics if they think you want them for Filthy Sex Reasons. what if there were 2 pharmacy employees and then one person for Literally Everything Else. what if all the prices on shelves were not actual item prices but instead hypothetical sale prices for members only, which you can't sign up for because you were waiting in line for 30 minutes and you think the guy three places behind you is maybe packing heat. what if everything was in a locked case."

...well we were already talking seriously about switching pharmacies due to the weird shitty treatment we've been getting and the dysfunctionality of their systems, sooo I guess this is a good incentive to do so immediately
I use CVS because it's conveniently right next to the co-op grocery and if I'm picking up anything at the pharmacy, by god, I Need My Little Treats Immediately, but the writing's on the fucking wall
Every Walgreens I have been in had unsettling vibes. Plus there always seems to be a CVS just up the street from where I'm staying at, sometimes within walking distance.
dedicated standalone pharmacies have just felt increasingly outdated since they just have them in grocery/department stores everywhere now. the last time i went into a walgreens it gave off immense late stage kmart vibes
