So, I'm a pharmacy technician at a well known chain pharmacy. Our market manager came in, and as always picks apart our pharmacy and what we need to do to fix it. The one thing I had the biggest problem with, is that she said we can no longer have the sticker covering our address on our license (she said this came from her boss) which is right below our picture. This is directly behind the drop off window, so everybody can see it. And I'm sorry, but we have a lot of qiestionable people coming in to this pharmacy and I do not want them knowing where I live. When we voiced our concern and said we don't want stalkers, she said "oh, I had a stalker before, it's no big deal, don't worry about it". She also said that it's too far for them to see. Which it definitely isn't, I can reach my arm back and touch the wall. Like....are you serious? I don't know how to handle this or where to go to get this resolved. So any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Change your address to the pharmacy address. Problem solved.
 
Texas requires a general and a public address. General is my home and public is my PO Box. Then again, our address isn't anywhere on our wall license.
 
I use a PMB (not a PO Box, but pretty much functionally the same) and it costs $160/yr (cheaper if you get a smaller one...it serves as my business address too).

If you have to list a residence address, use a family member/parents' that you can sortof say you actually live there in case anyone asks.
