A local pharmacy in Texas had to temporarily close its doors after reporting quite the harrowing mess inside: “bodily fluid everywhere.” More specifically, the store had taped a roughly handwritten note to the door on what seemed to be receipt paper that read, “Closed for Now. Give us time please there’s bodily fluid everywhere.” A photo of the concerning note was shared to r/SignsWithAStory, where over 6k users tuned in to the pharmacy’s fate, while several dozens shared their thoughts.
“I kinda want to know what happened, ngl,“ remarked a commenter, and almost a thousand upvoted in agreement; what was going on inside that local pharmacy? The only comment made by Pretty_Resident6206, the one who posted the photo, was a reaction to someone else’s horror story that their wife experienced while working as a pharmacy technician. Long story short, it involved an angry elderly man who left a trail of human waste after allegedly sabotaging the bathroom for other customers.
Reddit Quickly Assumed the Worst Had Happened in the Pharmacy
As gross as such an incident might sound, many in the comments expressed that this too was probably the case at this Texas pharmacy. “The answer is almost always diarrhea or vomit,” wrote a user. “Someone’s leakin’,” agreed another. Others chimed in, saying that’s almost always the case: a customer made a mess because they were sick or inconsiderate due to mental issues or age-related factors.
“The fact that they felt the need to put up a sign means it was bad enough to happen more than once,” pointed out a third. A fourth added how pharmacies aren’t the only businesses that employees would have to worry about cleaning liquids left by humans. “I worked in retail. I’ve seen all sorts of bodily fluids that had no business being where I found them,” the commenter recalled.
Several others pointed out other issues commonly seen at pharmacies, including businesses being understaffed to handle accidents such as bodily fluid spills properly, or customers avoiding the stores after such disasters. Unfortunately for this particular Texas pharmacy’s case, without OP’s insight, no one will ever know for sure.
