Did I just commit professional suicide?

Yep. Probably destined for a rough store thoughAre you currently employed?
Is being PIC that bad? Just curious..
Most PIC that I met at CVS wanted to step down, and company or Sup never let them.
For last one year, I have seen three PIC leave CVS.
And now, I am a floater but my Sup offered me to take PIC only until they find another PIC.
I really don't want to but I also am thinking like.. 'Why not? Just for couple months wouldn't hurt..'
What do you think? Should I take the offer?
It's more like $1+bonus.PIC at CVS is probably about $5 extra + bonus. I don't think that's enough compensation to be one.

If you're a good PIC ,they pay you very well.
Not really. All of this depends on location and the volume you do (a lot of which you cannot control, regardless of how good you think you are). I know ****ty managers that pull in 30k bonuses because they're at busy stores...and a lot of these stores are just in good locations...you cannot help but meet your metrics...just don't piss customers off and you're golden. Don't get me wrong, if you're a horrible pharmacist and manager, you will definitely lose the business...but a lot of pharmacy managers give themselves way too much credit.
Being a PIC doesn't make your job any more secure than staff or anyone else.
Bad move, take the extra money and delegate the extra tasks. Win, win
I considered that, but I currently have to do half of the technician duties as it is because tech hours are so short. There is no one to delegate the extra work to. There aren't even enough bodies to do the normal work.
Also, there's more to the story. The technicians at the store I was offered are lazy. The staff Rph is slow and is constantly pages behind. Definitely not things I could fix by becoming the RXM.
I just couldn't find a good enough reason to try and fix that store. I'm not afraid of responsibility, I just think it should appropriately compensated.
You sound like a craZy ass manager and out of touchIf they can't get it done, write them up. While you can't fire your staff rph, you can certainly force your supervisors hand. I've done it and now have a good staff rph. I do absolutely no extra tasks except detail but always on the clock which I love since its less hours at the store.
All people do is complain but they are too lazy to write up their employees
