London Drugs

And it's not that way in any business.

Walmart, London Drugs, anybody with the fourth distributor seems to have a decided advantage.

And that just means you have to get creative and work a little bit harder.

I don't know.

I worked at a lot of places.

I worked at London Drugs.

I worked at American Apparel.

I used to work at this weird Thai shop, as in Thailand, like things from Thailand.

Okay.

Yeah, so he actually got tired of retail, right? Dealing with all the customers coming in and complaining and this thing and that product, right? He was at London Drugs for 30 years.

And then he got into crane truck work and then he's still in that.

But what happened was when we started our business last year, it was very slow right like we were kind of going out finding stuff you know getting a job this week and a couple jobs maybe you know a few weeks later um so we basically worked with him and and stuff saying you know i needed help i was brand new still learning so he started watching videos online on how to do this and ways to make it work too and he's always been he's always said he's like if i could go back and do it over he's like i would have started a business and and kept that business and built it up you know working as an employee sure you can make good money but you're you're so stuck by what um you know your employer's telling you well you have to come to work today and you have to go do this tomorrow and you know he's like in the and the financial is only so big at that point because they're going to dictate what your hourly wage is going to be if you want more you may have to go find another job or you have to Ask them, but they can still say no.

But they are there now.

So if you ordered one through London Drugs or put your name on lists, then you should be hopefully getting one soon.

They just arrived in stores on Friday.

I put this in the show notes, item number 16.

There's cough and cold complete, which has a combination of like multiple different ingredients.

At London Drugs, pharmacist Jennifer Ho is extra busy these days.

Fall immunizations are now

underway.

And I think I might have accidentally cheated myself out of having to do that hard work because I got kicked out at 16.

I had a couple of performance skills and performing paid better than, you know, stocking the shelves at London Drugs every morning.

So I was doing gigs and it wasn't until I had been doing it for four years that I decided that this was something I wanted to do.

So I already had four years worth of skills and experience and contacts before I chose it as a life.

I tried that.

I tried that with the, uh, London Drugs photo lab.

I'm like, "I used to work in a photo lab."

It wasn't even that photo lab.

Or like-

[laughs]

... just commenting on, you didn't work at that London Drugs photo lab.

Yeah.
