Yeah. Not what he meant.
This is so worth a whole post.
At my pharmacy today, the pharmacist (himself, and not a tech, as is more typical) was helping a customer and was quite embarrassed that he didn’t remember her name. The sentiment he meant to express was that he spent so much of his day on the pharmaceuticals side of his job that personal relationships fell by the wayside, and that he was sad about that.
But what he said was “I’m sorry, my head is so full of drugs that I can’t always remember people’s names.” He was a very good sport, if rather embarrassed, when he realized how it came out sounding.
