Quite often it was specialist unlicensed medications that took ages to source.
I'd be on the phone trying to sort things out and people are like "they are just pills".

Mate of mine works in pharmaceuticals and his quote was “yeah, the pills cost 10p each to make, but that first one costs hundreds of millions”
Smokey is going to have a wild time.
I wonder if some people just come to the forums to try and find people to report, to make them feel better about how rancid they are as human beings. Having Hanson boy in mind.
Anyway, enough of this semi serious stuff.

It's when they charge outrageous prices for generics that's when it's pure greed imo.
I thought it was Bear and Grylls?
because that's not what dredgers do canonically. They're not mining refineries + manufacturing. They break down already manufactured materials and recycle. Recycling and refining from raw materials aren't the same processes.
taking an alloy (of which the dredger itself would heavily use) and recycling it is incredibly different from creating the alloy in the first place. Same for any compound. Even if you wanted to, manufacturing all of the various high tech alloys and such needed for a space ship would be beyond the scope of what could be found in a dredger. Especially the in-game variety (the book kind were much bigger)
That's the part about not thinking too hard about it. It's less a matter of imagining and more about not considering it at all.. Because imagination would conflict with implementation and lore and the only way to reconcile that is retconning or ignoring it.
Saying that, once my immediate senior manager left and I had to (along with the chief pharmacist) sort out contracts.
In one week I saved nearly a million pounds in contracts just from buying cheaper paracetamol, ibuprofen, codeine and other NHS formulary drugs.
Sounds like an excellent late 80s buddy cop film.
So what you're saying is Big Pharma found out and you're exiled to France with terrible electricity?
No, my 'wonder boss' was really crap at her job
Yep. The first patent and the development of the original is somewhat understandable (hard to swallow, but still…)
The companies afterwards just basically downloading a recipe that’s no longer under patent and lashing them out is ludicrous.
Your Lord Brebus doesn't protect you? Not surprising considering his loss of power and influence.
Fortuitous timing there Rabbit.
That's just anime symptoms of sexual tension / embarrassment. Totally normal. Dont worry about it.
Its with the economies of scale where I saw how the NHS drives down the cost.
But saying that I'm never ever going to be the pharmacy assistant who has to count out 1000 capsules in a jar like we had to in the 'olden days'.
