oxycontin again....

[audie]

last night about 6 pm, some punk went into the cvs where my hubby works (thank goodness he was off yesterday) and demanded oxycontin. someone in the store called 911, the police came, the punk ended up pulling a shotgun on the pharmacist and one of the deputies, and the 2nd deputy shot and killed the punk. my hubby is so worked up he can't hardly think straight. he is seriously thinking about quitting. he asked if we could make it on one income, i said no but.... you gotta do what you gotta do. it just makes me so angry that people who are just trying to help others are put in danger every day like this over something so stupid. there, i am off my soapbox now...

OMG Audie!! that is AWFUL!!! why , how, just does not make sense....needless addiction...gets the kid killed....and for what?...it is a real form of suicide!!!
If he is that worked up...maybe he should find another job? I know it is not easy...but the quality of life...no more stress! You both will live longer...and HAPPIER!!!!! What price do you put on your inner happiness? Change can be a good thing!

What horrible news audie. It's like a new kind of drug war.

does cvs have a secure area, or if not, will they install one now?

 

[Rudyjohn]

Wow, that is really horrible. It is too bad that its gotten this way. Pretty soon no one will want to be police officers or pharmacisits.

no and no - it's all about the profit, not the people

he is seriously considering a career move - but doesn't know to what. he will probably be doing a lot of thinking while on vacation about stuff. the bad thing is every place around here has the potential to be robbed, and they are doing it in broad daylight now. who knows what the answer is

Audie, this is terrible....i'm glad mr. audie was off! Maybe he should try a career move of some kind!! Good luck to you both!

 

[iwishiwasthere]

Glad to know he wasn't injured physically, but what a scary experience! Maybe you can find jobs while you are on vacation in SoWal...then everyday would be a vacation!

Audie,

That is so sad and maddening! As Allifunn said - change can be a good thing. Maybe this was just the last shove?
