Really? High school children?

I heard on the news tonight that one drugstore chain hires high school
children as assistants to dispense prescription drugs.

One more thing, the girl they interviewed was 16 years old.

They showed one person who was crippled and couldn't talk and had a
contorted face after taking the wrong prescription. The drugstore
said that the teenager put in pills with ten times as much dosage, and
the pharmacist, who reviewed*** what the kid had done, missed the
mistake.

***They said he reviewed it anyhow.
