I'm Crazy RxMan

I work as a retail pharmacist for a pharmacy inside a national grocery chain. I try to provide top notch pharmacy knowledge and service to my patients while ensuring their safety. I also try to earn a profit for the company. There's only three things standing in my way: My patients, the doctors that write their prescriptions, and the company where I work.
