Don't see what's wrong about "mailing it in" as long as you are meeting job requirements and not taking a big fat dump on workflow

Just feels weird hanging around after reaching $ milestones and I should be doing something more enjoyable.
Then I realize I made 1200-1300 ish this weekend for doing not a lot, sitting in AC and eating most of the day

Do something enjoyable with your time off.

I'd love to be at 32/week.

When I am finally replaced I can assure you my spot will go to a new grad eager to take my job for 15$ less per hour. Because they want to help people.

Yes, they want to help people. And the evil chains are laughing about that (all the way to the bank).

I'm still licensed and maintaining BCPS but I'm not practicing pharmacy anymore. I work in the biotech industry, no pharmaceuticals. It's weird to realize that I've left pharmacy practice, likely for good. Wow. But just in case, I keep that license and certification. I have priced myself out of anywhere now though...
