Boycotting them- every little bit helps
Picking up a prescription today, some asshole ahead of me was squawking with the pharmacist about how great it was that France was being "boycotted" and Canadian fishing camps have been affected by this guy's buddies not going up because of the Iraq war. The pharmacist agreed with him then later told me that "we need to send a message to them with our pocketbook." I said, "yeah".

Then I went home and called my doctor for new prescriptions to be filled at another pharmacy. I use a lot of prescriptions and had been going there to that pharmacy for a long while - didn't know he was a right wing pig. I see him at the gym, so I'll look for an occasion to tell him that I am "just sending a message with my pocketbook." Right wing bastards.

4. How long have you been
going to this STUPID pharmacist? Make sure you mention that when you talk to him. Make sure you tell him you'll NEVER come back. Write his parent company too.

5. Boycotts
Great idea AlinPA. Where can we start a DU boycott list? Lets start with General Electric (owner of NBC) products. Any more "economic" ideas?:think:

Tell the right wing bigot that you changed where your buying your pills. Let him know that your now going to Canada and getting them cheaper---enough to afford a trip to France!
