Yours Will Be Up In A Minute A fellow who works as a pharmacist at a high-volume pharmacy tells this one. He says most of the processing is done by technicians, who don't always know the purpose of the meds they dispense. One day last week, he says, there was a medicine making its way to the counter for a waiting customer. The tech didn't know the medicine's purpose was to help with erection problems. Seeing that the customer seemed to be growing impatient, the tech sought to placate him and reassured him, "Yours will be up in just a minute, sir."
