| Introduction | I am an independent pharmacist. I have a sweet job, with wonderful patients. But every day without fail, Mr. Joe Q. Public raises his evil head, & blows my day to hell. I am lucky in that I do not own this sweet little store, & at this point in our economy/government, am thankful I do not. I have the best of both worlds. I do have a small Board of Directors I have to answer to, but they are usually great. With no financial interest in the store, my assets are safe, yet I am allowed to run the store as I see fit with little interference. I have cable TV, usually finish my lunch within three sittings, & actually sit down more than I stand. My desk remains mostly visible & paperwork caught up. So, as much as I bitch, I love my job & would only give it up for the winning lotto ticket. But no matter how "good" you have it in pharmacy, the system is broken. What's tragic is it didn't used to be this way & doesn't have to be this way. I just wonder when pharmacists will reach critical mass & demand to be taken seriously. So follow along with me & enter the wonderful world of Phrustrating Pharmacy! |
