Look, dude. I know you want your daughter's amoxicillin, but yelling "IT'S JUST AMOXICILLIN! Why can't you do it NOW" at the poor lady behind the pharmacy counter is not going to get it to you faster. Does it even occur to you that there are people ahead of you who are calmly waiting to get their prescriptions filled and who are not attempting to jump the line just because they think THEIR prescriptions should be filled faster?
Also, just because the ED waiting room only has about six people in it does not mean that it's not a crazyevening in the actual emergency room. Rolling your eyes at me and saying, "You call THIS busy?" is not going to endear you to me, either.
