Advice needed. I've been a retail pharmacist for about 10 years. I worked full time for 4 years, then dropped down to part time (3-4 days/week) for the next 3 years. Then the kids came and I've only been working 2 days a month (if I wasn't on maternity leave) for the last couple years. Although I'm fine with the basics (filling, dispensing, counseling), I'm clueless otherwise when it comes to the other tasks that need to be done (for example ordering, inventory management, MTM, etc.) Since I've been with the company I don't think they would pay for extra training, but I do feel like I would benefit from whatever they put the new grads through. I do ask questions when I can and get answers but I feel like that's just scratching the surface. Part of me also thinks that I would be a lot better if I worked more but that isn't going to be happening for at least another few years. Should I formally ask for more training or would that just be calling attention to how much improvement I need? Suggestions appreciated.
