If you are the only Pharmacist with one clerk that answers phones and rings out people, however without a technician. So you are doing the data entry, filling, verifying etc. How many Rx’s can you fill per hour?
 
I can fill very fast and with accuracy which is most important, which explains my longevity in this business. I can't give you and exact number, but I have worked at super high volume stores. The problem with most pharmacist is that many can't multi-task and are far too slow to keep up with the fast paced pharmacy industry so they make excuses of why they can't do the work.

So what is the most scripts you have done with the least of tech hours?
 
Rxnupe, by multi task, you mean half ass several tasks simultaneously with the perception you are "doing so much". What do you care if someone else has to clean up your physical messes you make, redo all your cashed out scripts because you were too busy to look more into insurance issues, deal with irate customers demanding why X prescription was not filled, redo improperly stored prescriptions from your minimally trained burn and churn techs, performing dispensing report errors you make on a consistent basis, second check everything in inventory because you have eyesight issues/can't look on the shelves for an item, etc.

You just keep on thinking you've got those "superstar" quantity over quality metrics...from your other posts, you appear to have grandiosity/mania like issues you might want to address with a psychiatrist for your health and wellbeing
