Unfair

Case 1

A chaffeur-driven man was let out in front of a pharmacy and he walks right in. With a gold Lolex on his wrist and clad in designer labels, he immediately makes an impression.

Man: Ooi! Got any gastric medicine? I wan Pah-wer one ok!

Pharmacist: Got...RM0.20 per tab. How many do you want?

Man: Huh...so expensive meh, normally I buy a lot one. How much 1 box?

Pharmacist: One box 100 tabs, so after discount RM18/box for you.

Man: I take 5 box you give me RM16/box. Normally I buy that price from the Ang Soon Sing Pharmacy across the street there...If you don't give me this price, then I'll go there.

Ubat Gastrik (Gastric Medicine) Pah-Wer Cap Hantu...Cost RM15/box and RSP is RM20. Hmm...the pharmacist takes out his calculator. "Profit margin of only 6 percent plus...anyway since he's taking such a big quantity...and today sales not so good..."

Pharmacist: Ok. No problem.

Man walks out victorious, the pharmacist has made a RM5 profit from the transaction, but better than nothing he figures.

Case 2

A construction worker from a nearby construction site walks in...

CW: Hey boss...got Pah-Wer gastric med?

Pharmacist: Got. RM0.20/tab. Normally take two tab a day one...

CW: I only have RM0.20...never mind give me one tablet only lar. Belum dapat gaji.

Pharmacist: Hmm...ok (Considers giving a discount, but since he's only making a 5 cent profit...decides against it).

Those who can afford to pay have the option not to pay. Those who can't have no option but to pay.

Life is unfair.
