*You mark X on Centrum bottle after opening, at home.

*You call mom at home and end the chat with " thank you, bubye".

Anything else?

Sounds like something I would have done already if I had a marker next to my bottle :laugh:

Does 'wanting to talk about what you did at work, or something pharmacy related when you meet up with old friends' count?

Sometimes I can't think of stuff to talk about initially, because I still have work on my mind and I can't think of stuff other than drugs I've seen all day.
 
"*** Pharmacy, how can I help you?" Mind you, this is talking on the phone to family etc

This one always makes me pause when I'm working a new job, or now at my IPPE. Thank God I don't have a landline at home, or I would probably do this.

Before I went back to school, I worked in an office during the day, and at Pizza Hut several evenings a week. And yes, I once answered the office phone, "Thank you for calling (name of street) Pizza Hut....."

:laugh:
 
During the summer when I was working a fulltime shift. I heard the drive thru ring in my head and had to realize that I was actually in my bed and not at work...

I've done that more times than I care to count. Did it a few times on my IPPEs at rival chains, too (once with their regional manager standing right next to me).

I'm glad I got out before they took over my mind.
