Background:
A young-ish woman came up to the counter, and asked for us to fill some scripts that she had just gotten from the E-room. Sure, no problem. One of them was for a popular pain med, so I asked for ID.
C: Why do you need Id?
Me: (lying, because people complain less this way) Its the law, I have to for this type of prescription.
C: Oh... My ID's got stolen a while ago, can't you just fill it this once?
Me: I'm sorry, you'll either have to get an ID for me, or I can't fill this for you.
C: Oh. OK.
She leaves, but 15 minutes later comes back.
C: Can you use my Adult Entertainment License as ID and fill my prescription?
I take a look, and sure enough, there's a picture and an ID#. As I used to work in that industry myself, I know that this is a legal form of ID, not just a club's way of keeping track of their people.
Me: Sure, I can use that. Give me 20 minutes or so, and I should have it ready.
I enter it in the computer, and actually have it ready in about 10 minutes... and she showed up an hour later- after her mother had come inside looking for her. She picked up the meds and left with her mother, who was aparrently playing taxi for her.
Half an hour later, I got a phone call from the mother, asking if her daughter still needed a ride home. This suprised me, as I had thought they left together. After a few questions, I understood the problem.
The daughter had spent the time before picking up her meds wandering around the store and slipping various items into neat little hiding spots on her person. When she tried to leave, our awesome security guard hauled her upstairs. At the mother's request, I went up and talked to him, to see if her mom needed to wait any longer in the parking lot to drive her home.
He laughed, and replied, "She's won a free ride and an overnight stay in the Gray Bar Motel."
OK. Daughter is a stripper. Unless they are awful, they can make $500 a night EASILY. Some of the girls I know make a couple thousand a night. Pretty dumb to steal shit while getting narcotics- especially when you have an income like that.
The more strippers I meet, the more I regret doing that. It tosses me into the same category as this idiot.
- I work in a pharmacy
- Company policy requires that we get ID for any controlled prescriptions
