plus there is a huge room for advancement. i know someone who used their education grant for school. got bachelors and became manager. And making close to 6 figures now. And of course they get bonus as well.
What makes you think running a restaurant is easier than giving shots or requires less skills and experience?

Also, no licensing required and learning curve is literally ZERO compared to being a tech. Can literally hire someone off the street and put them to work the same day!
1.) learning curve is much steeper for a tech than a restaurant employee (easy to train restaurant employee than a tech)
I would if I was currently running a top 2 pharmacy chain. Fortunately I'm not!
In a previous career I was a front of house staff in a full service restaurant/hotel. I would say a competent waithelp working a full 40 (rare) would make a better living than most new grad rphs in major metros (student loans). Managing a restaurant is longer hours than rph though. Lots of working over 40 unless you are fully staffed and budgeted (rare).
I am not saying running a restaurant is easier. But it does not require 6 years of school, loans, licensing exam and CEs to maintain it.
managers do, a current retail RPh working < 40 hours per week doesn't
I meant Chipotle managers (as referenced by the article)
jobs.chipotle.com
70k is close to what a newly minted RPh would now make (~$45/hr x 32 hours per week x 52 weeks) ~75kIt looks like most of the Chipotle general managers still make around 70k.
Only "restaurateurs", or Chipotle managers of "A" stores make 6 figures.

It does require , though, creativity, hard work and being able to think outside the box, which many pharmacists are unable to do. Why are we whining about how pharmacy requires schooling etc ? We are the ones who chose to go into the field knowing what it entails and what it requires and somehow that justifies you being better than a restaurant manager/owner?
You can't go in? Weird. You guys must still have a pandemic. Ours is over.
hows their work-life balance at $225K+?
Just fine, it's actually no worse and usually better than both standard chain and hospital. I mean, they traveled more pre-COVID or had more clinic time at crunch, but annoyingly, that's how all my lawyer and PE friends view pharmacy as the only pharmacists they deal with on a personal level are those sorts of pharmacists. The MSL's have a much more glamorous life especially with the social rat race. The job's secondary, scoring on the social register is the main event.
what bout Chick-fil-A?
What does BAH want with pharmacists? Assuming it's a non-pharmacy position.....
If you have to ask, you don't know how it works.
Just curious, are most of your BAH hired pharmacists retired or retiring O-6's
That is technically true, but you can, but it's deferred compensation. I'll PM you the details as you'd probably appreciate the nuance.
