This is probably not going to be the thread you think it is....but first, a few riddles!
1. What kind of thief shakes your hand after a robbery? A pharmacy school dean.
2. What can you do to a piece of paper to make it worth less than nothing? Print a pharmacy license on it.
Ok. Now on to the actual thread. I like to think I'm a helpful guy. And I've been thinking about all those new grads with their freshly minted pharmacy diplomas. A few of them that went to the few remaining good schools might even have passed the NABPLEX and gotten licenses to boot. Yes- they could simply frame those documents. But that provides a constant reminder of past stresses, frequent bad decisions and a truly bleak future. Best put those EXPENSIVE documents to good use in the REAL world. So I've got some suggestions to help the new grads find a REAL use for those documents. When we're done we can take our suggestions over to the student forums which will certainly earn those involved (myself included) a ban for melting the snowflakes.
1. Hygienic use- Place said document under your cat's litter box. This prevents overspray. For those concerned about the environment the document can be laminated for repeated uses!
2. Financial use- Contrary to popular belief, you CAN still make money with a pharmacy license. It works like this. Buy a tin cup. Take diploma, license and tin cup and sit in front of Starbucks. Anything appearing in cup by the end of the day =PROFIT. People will see your license. Those in the know will empathize. A few will ask if you really needed to go to school and get a diploma to learn to count pills. Humor them. End of the day what's in the cup is yours, tax free!
3. Compassionate use- take diploma and/ or license. Tape it to your parents' car in appropriate location. This will prevent the Uber/Lyft/Domino's delivery sign from damaging their paint. Accept their gratitude for being considerate.
4. Decoration- Framed, they look impressive on the wall of your parents' basement, your safe spot (right above the play doh and fidget spinners), or the cardboard box you call home. If you find it depresses you, you can always take it down. To the guys- it might help you get women IF they don't get too close and actually read the documents. Failure is the opposite of an aphrodisiac. Or so they say.
Please add any additional uses you come up with. x.
