        That’s probably depressingly accurate. There is a Costco pharmacy, they’ll probably ask you to get a note from them or send them up to your room.

        I can easily see a world where the pharmacist regularly denies all sick claims to avoid getting fired and evicted themselves.

          This is exactly why it doesn’t matter how good the CEO of Costco is

          “The purpose of a system is what it does”

          You don’t have to dig very deep to realize all we can really do at this point is try to make hell seem more comfortable
