Pharmacists: What do we do, why we are needed, how much do we make

Pharmacists: What do we do, why we are needed, how much do we make.

Dear All,

I am a UBC pharmacy student just finished my 3rd year of study and going into my final year. I accidentally discovered this thread and felt the need to create this post for pharmacists’ voices to be heard. I had worked in corporate pharmacies, franchised pharmacies, and independent pharmacies as pharmacy assistant throughout my studies. As I have some time on my hand right now, I thought I would do this instead of doing other things. Please feel free to correct me if any information written below has errors or needs clarifications. Experienced pharmacists’ opinions are also greatly appreciated.

I wrote this on RFD, I thought I'd share it on my blog. Hope this post reaches more people who would like to know more about the profession and students who wish to pursue this career.

[2015 Movie] SPY and Mad Max

I watched Mad Max like last month and SPY last week
I know I always post articles that are wayyy too long. So I'm gonna start making them short :P

Mad Max:  ★★★☆☆
Action packed, full on car-chasing war. A bit too much car racing for me.

SPY: ★★★★★
Funny, Awesome, lots of plot twists (unpredictable).
