Even when pharmacists do let people access contraception, whether emergency contraception or condoms or prescription birth control pills, the process isnât always free of judgment. In a series of recent online discussions, people across the country have begun to share stories of the stigma theyâve experienced. As many have pointed out, this can be especially damaging to teens.
DO YOU SEE THIS? PHARMACY EMPLOYEES IN THE U.S. ARE NOT LEGALLY ALLOWED TO DO THIS. THAT GOES FOR THE PEOPLE AT THE FRONT AS WELL AS PEOPLE IN WHITE COATS BEHIND THE CAGE.
If an employee in a pharmacy makes a snide comment – Front store workers, pharmacists, or Pharmacy Techs give you shit? Gently (Or not so gently) remind them that the waiver they signed upon being hired legally binds them from commenting on your purchase, as it is a violation of privacy laws. Doing so is grounds for INSTANT termination and hefty fines.
Pharmacy workers (white coats) are legally obligated to ASK if you need an explanation of how medication works and any side effects, any medication conflicts etc. If you decline, THEY ARE NOT ALLOWED AT ALL TO MAKE SNIDE REMARKS OR FARTHER COMMENT ON YOUR PURCHASE. FRONT STORE EMPLOYEES CAN NOT AT ALL COMMENT IN ANY WAY, IN ANY STORE WITH A PHARMACY IN IT.
Know your rights. If this shit happens? Call them the fuck out and ask to speak to a manager. Get worked up. Cause a scene. Threaten a Lawsuit. If you see this happening to someone else, and they seem to be struggling, speak up for them.Â
As a Pharmacy worker, you bet your ass Iâll protect you and your privacy. ITâS MY JOB.
my mom just came to me and ranted about how everyone is making this facebook status that says, âraising teenagers is like nailing jello to a treeâ. she was so baffled by this because she said, âyou were pretty easy to raise as teenagers. all you did was sleep and eat.âÂ
so to prove some point sheâs going to nail a small cup of jello to a tree.Â
sheâs so pleased with her self
incredible
parents are weirdÂ
yeah but this is about as accurate as it gets.
you say ânail jello to a treeâ and most people think jello all by itself.
but if you put any actual thought into what youâre doing and then give it just a little support
I literally canât get myself to sit through movies that donât have women. Iâm like where the fuck are the women? Why are there so many men? This is boring as fuck goodbye
Even if itâs historically accurate?
as everyone knows, women were invented in 1990
All the notes of âwomen werenât on old time battlefieldsâ are wrong. There were more prostitutes and merchant women than there were soldiers in most every encampment. They followed the armies, marching alongside them, and notably ran the camps.
Many more women dressed as men to fight.
Long before female nurses were officially considered to be a part of the military, they were already on the battlefield. They merely didnât get written into official reports because they were âinvisible womenâ, ânot supposed to be thereâ. Usually they would be local women running a makeshift care center out of their homes.
Movies involving ancient societies? Guess how many had female fighters?
Spies? Mostly female. Yeah, only the men were caught, usually (because nobody suspected the servant woman), but historians believe most cases had more women spies than men. Most cases meaning across time and continents.
Giving me a movie on samurai? Women were trained as well to avoid being captured and raped, and often fought just as hard as men. One woman notably survived multiple battles, and became a hero alongside her sisters after taking out 7 men before dying in her last fight (usually in sword fighting youâd be lucky to take out 2 enemy soldiers. 7 is fucking insane, but because she was a woman it was shoved under the records how the lord managed to survive).
Women have ALWAYS been on battlefields. Women have an intense history in driving victories and losses alike. They were supply runners, fighters, spies, assassins, prostitutes (look up how prostitutes essentially ran the western world, or even the social status of harem members. They literally fucking ruled), even underground activists.
The only time there werenât many women were with cowboys. Actual western cowboys tended to be both POC and gay. In fact, any time women didnât have a near equal or greater presence, there was a LOT of gay men.
History: either 80% female or 100% gay. And itâs 95% POC.
I love that one of the restrictions on name changes in the UK is that your name cannot âpromote criminal activitiesâ and fucking hell every name I can think of that violates that is just stellar honestly like fucking hello nice to meet you my name is Commit Arson, Iâd like you to meet my daughter Dont Pay Taxes and my son Steal From Work
