I love the engineer and the computer programming posts. It seems to me that it is just the same philosophy as a pyramid scheme, every one points at the exception to the rule (the person making the most money). What is not pointed out is that for every 1 that makes it big there are 30 who are making the minimum amount in their field. I have 6 or 7 friends with degrees ranging from accounting to engineering and computer programming. They are all struggling to find a job that is in their field and that pays well. Most of the time it takes years and years for people with other degrees to make 80k+ a year. In pharmacy it is the rule rather than the exception. Show me an example of a Pharmacist who is willing to work 40 hours a week and is not being paid 90-100k a year plus all the benefits (i.e. stock purchase, profit sharing, 401k, 3-4 weeks paid vacation.
I would bet that those who are crying about pharmacy would be crying about engineering or computer programming. "The individual makes the work environment not the environment makes the individual" I would hate to be a tech and listen to all the whining by the pharmacist while I worked especially is they make 5 times what I did. If you have bad techs find out what they lack and impose some training to help them improve.
