You'd have to be an absolute ace at time management to pull off being a perv and a med student.
Wow
Hospitals in my area are notorious for not hiring their own residents. Residents are for all purposes free labor. Why hire a 6-figure earning pharmacist when you can train your incoming residents to do the same thing in just a few months?
We've been hiring about 2 residents a year for the past three years now. New positions being created as well. Not doom and gloom everywhere.
So I just dropped out of pharmacy school today after 1 semester. It sucks that this profession is going down hill.
I'm jealous. I'm a P3 and in too deep. Even if I could go back a year, I would have dropped out after my 3rd semester and went to nursing school. Graduate in 2 years and would be able to live in any city in america. Maybe not making 100k like a pharmacist but I'd be able to live anywhere and have job security

I had a conversation the other day with a unit clerk at my rotation. He opted out of pharmacy school after being accepted, I congratulated him on dodging a bullet, we spoke about all the ways 6-8 years and $150k could be spent... It left me dreading my decision.
Oh well, here's to 4 final months of sleep deprivation and paying to work my ass off for snobby pseudo-intellectuals while pretending to regard residencies as the holy grail of pharmacy achievement when it comes up every goddamn week on rotation. Oh, to be debt-free and traveling the world with a laptop and a computer science degree...
