Does anyone have any experience as a mail order pharmacist? What are usually the day-to-day tasks like? And do you know what the average salary is?
Ive worked as a retail pharmacist for 3 years for CVS and to be honest I finally got burnt out! I had only one other partner and we both had rotating 44 hour schedules (would work 14 hour shifts with no overlap, except for one day of the week we overlap for only 2 hours).
I wouldn't mind working behind the desk and not interacting with patients anymore. Really after having people yelling at my face everyday finally took a toll on me because I found myself becoming short-tempered around the ones I cared for and honestly felt like a human punching bag at times!
One of the perks of the offer I got from a mail order company is a 8-4pm shift and no weekends. As a retail pharmacist my schedule was just all over the place and I never had the same day of the week off during the week, which prevented me from doing any extracurricular activities. Plus I worked every other weekend which I also disliked (whereas some of my other retail rph friends had a third partner to at least work some weekends so that they'd only work every 2 weekends).
