HOW AIRLINES WOULD BECOME OBSOLETE (if they were staffed like pharmacies)

No one realizes the impact one mistake could have when you are in the pharmacy. If airlines were staffed like pharmacies you best believe every pilot would walk out.
It’s so important to NEVER RUSH your pharmacists and if it’s a medication you really need, then try to find a pharmacy that is slower. Pro tip: A 24 hour pharmacy can be extremely busy and finding a local independent pharmacy may be better if you would like specialized customer service.

Once again american retail pharmacy sounds not so great, it's way different here and I'm glad

[@williamhrivnak7345]

Maybe I’m just lucky, but the pharmacy I work at has several certified techs that can handle a lot of the responsibilities really well and my state now allows them to give vaccines. That airplane analogy makes it sound like the pharmacist is getting no help from technicians

The Pharmacy I work at never gives us enough hours for labor to begin with and they cut our hours even more during spring/Sumer At most we have maybe 3 techs in the morning and maybe 2 in the evening but most of the time we only have one. A lot of times that tech is stuck hopping back and forth between ringing up patients at counter and drive through and maybe typing a script between patients when one side is empty while Pharmacist has to take care of everything else. Weekends are even worse as we have at most 2 techs most days we only have the second tech for a few hours.

Just lucky. Not every store has a surplus of techs. Ah I remember the days of COVID. My first week, I was the only tech and had to rely on the pharmacist for most things as I hadn't been trained. I felt so bad they were so overworked but I did my best.

How can he get help from techs that corporate won't give him enough hours to schedule?

[@Jaymac720]

Do your pharmacies not have cashiers? Or are we talking about hospital pharmacies? Regardless, every pharmacy I've been to has the pharmacist(s) doing their job with the meds and a cashier getting people their meds

[@user-ml3hl6vr4t]

Our local pharmacy is family owned. One pharmacist, 2 technicians that also answer phone, put up meds to be picked up, run the register, answer questions. He also has two cashier types that can hand out the bagged meds plus sell any on the shelf items. The area is about 2500. 2021 there was about four weeks where COVID, two types of flu, a nasty cold, and MSRA going around. Clinic was open extra hours-there was no parking and the air ambulance couldn’t come in until the heli-port/lot emptied, all beds were full of COVID, and pharmacy was open two hours after the clinic closed, trying to catch up. They can earn their money. The pilot would also be refueling the plane, here.

My pharmacy has one or two pharmacists and a dozen pharmacy techs. So that airline would be one pilot and then everyone else would be flight attendants.

[@Rav123123]

Replay the pilot with the pharmacy tech THEN have the pilot double check all the work. Then you got it

You are THE most attractive man I’ve ever seen. I could listen to you all day. ❤️

[@TheAnticsofTom]

You’re right, laws should be changed to allow techs to do everything in the pharmacy because a pharmacy degree isn’t really necessary to input meds into an interaction checker
