(A patient walks up to the pick-up window looking like he just came from the emergency room.)
Me: “Hello, sir, how can I help you?”
Customer: “I wanna drop this off…” *hands me an ER prescription*
Me: “Sir, this is the pick-up window. You need to drop off the prescription at the drop off window.”
Customer: “Where’s that?”
Me: “The counter at the entrance to the room with the big sign that says “Drop Off Window’.”
Customer: “Where?”
Me: “You know, you already waited in line so I’ll just take the prescription here. Have you ever had any medication here before?”
Customer: “I don’t know; have I?”
Me: “I’ll take that as a no. Do you have any allergies to medication?”
Customer: “Well, when I mix heroin and battery acid, I get a rash.”
Me: “…I’ll make a note on that.”

Customer: “Excuse me, what are diaper couches?”
Me: “I’m sorry?”
Customer: “Diaper couches.”
Me: “Ma’am, I’m not sure what you mean.”
Customer: *points to the boxes of diapers* “That box! It says ‘diaper couches’.”
Me: *suddenly understanding* “Ma’am, that box says diapers, and then it says ‘couches’. That’s the French word for diapers.”
Customer: *looks around, then whispers* “Don’t tell anyone!” *leaves*
