Funny Pharmacist Christmas Shirt 12 Days Of Pharmacy Gingerbread Gift

Twelve Days of Pharmacy, Counted Down to One Hour Left of the Shift

The countdown opens at twelve with vaccinations and runs all the way down to a single hour left, and anyone who has worked a pharmacy counter in December will recognize every line in between. Prior authorizations sit at eleven, consultations at ten, narcotics counted at nine, and by four the phones are ringing again. Our 12 Days of Pharmacy design takes the old carol and rewrites it in the handwriting of someone who has been on their feet since the doors opened.

Every number has its own small drawing. Up at eleven, a stack of books wears a Santa hat. Ten gets a clipboard and a glucose meter, the quiet tools of a consultation. Eight, antibiotics need mixing, gets a pair of flasks on a stand. Seven, analgesics need dispensing, gets a snowman carrying a little first aid bag. Six, prescriptions need filling, sits next to a microscope and a syringe, and five, compounds pending, gets a wreath with a bow. Four, phones are ringing, sits beside a blister pack and two medicine bottles. Three, tech called out, is a stack of wrapped presents. Two, meds expiring, is a candy cane tied with ribbon beside a bottle of hand sanitizer. And at one, a small tree wearing a nurse’s cap and a few bells stands in for the last hour of the day.

A Pharmacist Christmas Shirt With a Gingerbread Man Beside the Narcotics Count

Nine is where the gingerbread man stands, Santa hat on his head, next to a patterned ornament and a small bottle. He is the one soft touch among all the clinical drawings, and he is a big part of why our Funny Pharmacist Christmas Shirt feels warm instead of weary. It suits the pharmacist who comes home in December and recounts the day in numbers, the same way the design does, and the family who has learned to nod along at the mention of prior authorizations. Snowflakes and holly sprigs are scattered through the spaces between the lines, so the whole list reads like a holiday tradition of its own. It fits the holiday potluck just as well as a seat at the family table where someone finally asks what December is like behind the counter.

Who else behind the counter would pick up the 12 Days of Pharmacy design?

Pharmacists and pharmacy techs alike will recognize this list, and the line about the tech called out gives a whole team something to point at on a busy December shift.

Number one, the little tree in its nurse’s cap, is the part we picture getting the last smile on the way out the door.
