I know I would say: NO, 100%. I didn't want to do it immediately after graduation. However, here is the opportunity in front of me.
Here is my situation: I will graduate in 2 weeks and already have a job with a chain as a floater. However, I always want to have my own pharmacy. I competed in the NCPA business plan completion and won the top three. The pharmacy that my business plan was based on was closed yesterday due to the owner's family reason. The owner sold the files to a chain and he will move out of state in 2 weeks. It has a great location, about 100 RX a day (not much, but have high end cosmetics to support it), in a very affluent, liberal town, and it's the only independent in the town.
If it is 1 year later, I will definitely step in.
Now you know my dilemma: I am very inexperienced as a new graduate, I won't even get my license probably until August. I must act fast because it is the best to open a pharmacy at the same location within 6 months to get back the patients.
What will you do if you were me?
