As of now there's the whole national demand for pharmacists and everyones switching over to prepharm and my friend commented that by the time I graduate and get my pharmd companies might not need me as much and won't offer those cool job bonuses n etc. Is this true?!?!

Pharmacists should be in demand for quite a while, at least until the boomers die off.
