Why do I say that? Because the things people expect from the pharmacy indicates, without a doubt, that pharmacists and technicians must be super heroes.
Example 1:
The lady doesn't know her own address. Flynn explains that we need that to get anywhere. The lady expects us, as super heroes, to produce that information out of thin air. She then proceeds to get mad at us when we don't know it.
Example 2:
"I want NON safety caps. No one but children can open these," she says, defiantly.
I open the bottle for her to show her than adults can indeed open the safety caps on a bottle.
"YOU should have KNOWN that I wouldn't be able to open that bottle," she belts out.
Example 3:
"Does your grocery have a gluten-free section?" she asks.
I turn to Flynn. He shrugs his shoulders. I respond, "I don't know if the store does or not. Maybe I could get a manager to..."
She cuts me off.
"You know, you would think..."
She looks me up and down.
"...that SOMEONE in the PHARMACY would know SOMETHING about GLUTEN!"
She then storms off in another direction.
A super hero would have known.

"Yes ma'am, I do know something about gluten. It's a naturally occurring protein in things like bread, and it's the bit that makes the bread all poofy when the CO2 gets produced from fermentation. I know that it's harmless for most people. I also know that presently there is a anti-gluten fad going around, and apparently you've caught it. There is an anti-gluten space in the store, and you'll find it full of fruit and vegetables."
Oh, you must have celiac disease...
