I am disturbed because I am 29 years old and learned today that ppl breed fish and plop them into our rivers for ppl to fish… I really thought the fish were out here in nature just naturally breeding 😐
Today I caught a medroxyprogesterone injection sent in for a 61 YO male with knee pain. Called office to say wtf (professionally), they meant to send in a medrol dose pack… love validating the need for pharmacist existence
While educating a patient today as to why other chains require appointments for vaccinations I stated that a lot of chains are severely short staffed. They replied, “they aren’t short staffed. they’re lazy”. The gap between the public’s knowledge and reality of retail pharmacy…
if you can earn a PharmD and survive working in retail, then you are intelligent, adaptable, and capable of succeeding in many, many other roles (either within or outside of pharmacy)
