How do grocery stores have so much stock? Do they have all the types of food? How do they get more food??

On average it takes a few minutes to fill a prescription. The reason why they say 20 is because there’s 50 ahead of you and some will take much longer and we gotta make 10 calls and the fucking customers act like we are standing around.

I worked in a Pharmacy in Germany and we get up to 4 deliveries a day. One in the morning with the stuff that people need that came in just before closing, one before Lunch, one after Lunch and one in the early evening. So everyone can get the stuff they need almost the same day. But we have a lot of Stock too. Stuff thats needed a lot like painkillers, fever medicine for Kids, yada yada is a must.
In smaller citys its even normal for your Pharmacy to Stock medication for certain people. Like we had a few diabetics and someone with a Heart Problem, we always had their stuff ready so they never needed to wait!

Also consider that a pharmacy absolutely does not stock every single kind of medication ever. A GP’s pharmacy is likely not going to have super specialised medicines because there’s almost no circumstance where it would prescribed. For example: immunosuppressants that are only used after orgsn transplants. The people who need those meds and the people who show up to a GP basicslly do not overlap.
