    I put in an application to Walgreens, CVS, hospitals. Only 1 contacted me, and they are 45 minutes away. I wish pharmacies would be more communicative as to whether they need me, or whether my application says something that is making me undesirable.

    I'm really interested in pharmacy work. I found it interesting but I didnt want to do human pharmacology work. I was so excited when I found out vet pharmacist was a real job I could do. I cant be a regular vet as I'm severely allergic to cats

      It’s true they don’t have a stretch to them and they will rip in between the legs from the constant walking. I weight 220 5’3 and I got sizes XL

    Dear Tiara, I am a pharmacy technician for the same company. I have had such issues with the nasty rude girl training me. We are short handed and if all possible would you please take my email/phone number so that I may know how properly to assist customers when they come in to get their scripts. When I train with her she rushes through what she is doing and has even rudely yelled at me. Mgmt doesn't do anything to her and tolerates her nasty behavior because we don't have the help. I've got to get ahead of the game so to speak when dealing with her. PLEASE HELP 😢

    • @miraculouslady632
      @miraculouslady632 Год назад +4

      Hello. I am currently a Pharmacy Tech at Walgreens. And No, the job itself is a lot more than just counting pills. Counting pills and filling prescriptions is only a small part of the job. Outside of filling prescriptions you will also be expected to help check out patient's prescriptions at the pick up counter, help sign patients up and bill them for vaccines, help answer incoming phone calls, make outbound phone calls/patient care calls, calling insurance companies if there are any issues with a patient's prescription, etc. There's a lot that goes into it and you always have to make sure you are pulling your own weight when it comes to the workload and also be willing to help out your team if things are falling behind or if the pharmacy becomes too busy. Hope this helps.
