Dispensary Corner 14 Apr 14

I’M not a weirdo, honestly.
As a journalist, you’re often
attendant at events where
you don’t have many (or any)
acquaintances.
Alex’s general stand by is to walk
up to a random group of people
and introduce herself with a ‘Hi, I
don’t know anyone.’
This doesn’t always go
swimmingly, particularly when
the people concerned are a)
a group of friends b) having a
nice conversation before you
blundered in and c) you’re
choking on an hors d’oeuvre.
At a recent event at which
PD tried this technique out,
some very kindly pharmacy
students politely curtailed their
conversation and tried to answer
questions which, upon reflection,
were probably too heavy for 7pm
on a Thursday, and ignore the
watering of PD’s eyes as the vol
au vent got slightly stuck.
My apologies to the students
(you know who you are) but
you’ll make great health care
professionals!
