My favorite pharmacist job description:

(1/4) I walk into the work room to ask my favorite resident about the meropenem order he put in.

He slams his fist against the table: "How do you always know?!" He shouts.

Everyone in the room jumps. Usually, he is so easygoing.
(2/4) "Know what?"

"How do you ALWAYS know?" He repeats. "Like the second I put an order in, you ask me about. It's like immediate!"

The fellow laughs, "Man- don't you realize that's the pharmacist's job? They look at all our orders to make sure we didn't jack anything up."
(3/4) He looks at me in disbelief, "Really?"

I show him my computer screen with his mero order. He shakes his head, "It was like superhuman. I couldn't figure it out."

"May I ask - what is it you thought I did all day?"
(4/4) "I just thought you were here to know things," he says, "Like to come on rounds & know stuff & ask questions & tell us stuff. You know so much."

To this day, if anyone asks me about my job as a pharmacist in the unit, I say, "I'm here to know things."
