0:00.0	I gave my girlfriend five COVID shots, accidentally.
0:05.1	And this is what happened.
0:07.2	Quick background, I'm in my last year of pharmacy school.
0:10.4	I'm currently bouncing around doing rotations, which are pre-work at different sites.
0:15.5	Hospitals, big pharma companies, retail stores, among many other things.
0:20.2	This most recent rotation is in a grocery store
0:22.7	pharmacy, where things have gotten pretty hectic with the CDC giving the okay for everyone to get
0:28.2	booster shots, which also happened to coincide with flu shot season. I'm pretty much just sticking
0:33.9	people with needles all day every day. So my girlfriend needs her Pfizer booster shot for work, and she wants me to give it to her.
0:41.3	Cute, right?
0:43.3	I tell her I'd be happy to.
0:45.3	On this particular day, for whatever reason, we can't drive to the pharmacy together because our schedules don't line up.
0:51.3	I have an obligation in the morning, so I end up at the pharmacy in the early
0:55.2	afternoon, and she arrived about 15 minutes after I do. On an average day, I'm usually the vaccine
1:01.3	guy, because I'm the guy who says hello at the window, updates your vaccine card, takes your
1:06.0	insurance stuff, and makes you wait 45 minutes. I promise I'm moving as fast as I can, and then gives you the
1:12.3	shot. So I'm used to handling the whole process step by step at my own pace, being as
1:18.5	organized as time will allow me to be. I like to set up my stuff in the morning before we open,
1:24.0	get all the paperwork in order, and have my ducks in a row before the day even starts.
1:28.8	So I walk into the pharmacy in the early afternoon, and it's absolute unbridled chaos.
1:34.7	People waiting for shots, knocking on the windows, some lady poking her head under the plexiglass,
1:40.6	and asking me about her, Venla fax machine, etc. I'm already flustered as heck and off my game
	...
