A pharmacist employed at the corner drug store came to work only to find a guy leaning against a nearby wall. Curious, he asks the newly hired clerk, “So, what’s up with that guy?”
The new clerk responds, “Well, he came in this morning to get something for his cough, but I couldn’t find the cough syrup, so I gave him an entire bottle of laxative.”
In a panic, the pharmacist shouts at her, “You can’t treat a cough with a laxative!”
Unabashed, she calmly responds, “Yes, you can. Since I gave it to him, he’s been afraid to cough.”
