I have to admit, I am a bit ignorant as to what a pharmacist does. Can someone sum up what the pharmacist does and what a typical day for a pharmacist is? Thanks
lol this is hilarious. also I think this is the oldest thread someone has asked about the role of a pharmacist. but I think the roles described above (both retail and hospital) are pretty accurate. Although I just really wanted to do this for ShadowRX haha"Thank you for calling the firey pits of hell, this is the pharmacist speaking. How can you make my day any worse?"

haha that was the point, Shadow kinda gets irritated when people do that although I don't understand why it is a shameful thing to do lol.shame on you, you brought back an old thread from 2002, lol. It was pretty funny though.
Typical day for a retail pharmacist:
36 Unhappy customers
43 Rejected claims
6 Pharm Tech mistakes
3 Printer jams
29 Refill-too-soons
54 Insurance claim issues
214 Minutes on the telephone
I'd be darned. You have some highly experienced techs over there. It's not so bad!

A thread from 2002?
I was about to tell the OP to use the search function since we discuss this topic monthly.
.Wow, in 2002 I was still in high school.
I was a sophomore in college. Dear God I am old
Yeah, you were ahead of me academically but we are the same age!
In 2002, I moved from a good part of my state to an ok part of my state
I say that, but both parts have its advantages and disadvantages.
My school has a main campus at the place I live in now, and a satellite campus at the place I grew up.
Ahh, you went from Fayetteville to Little Rock? Are you on crack?
I was a sophomore in college. Dear God I am old
I was in the 2nd year of my 2nd 4 year degree.
here's to us!

Oh snap. I have to text my sister. My moms bday is somewhere around now.Meh, she is worse than I am when it comes to remembering dates. I doubt she would mind since she probably couldn't tell you herself.

also, if planning a career in pharmacy, memorize these sayings:
"this medication is non-forumulary."
"i don't know why the won't pay for it."
"yes i am sure that this is what your doctor wrote for."
"i have no idea why your co-pay is $15.00."
"i can't refill this until next tuesday."
"most insurance companies won't reimburse for pills accidentaly dropped in the toilet."
"40mg? No, doctor, they don't make a 40mg tablet. 50mg? Sure, ok."
"hi, this is xyz pharmacy. I need to talk to dr. Tremor because i can't read what he wrote."
"shoe laces? Isle 3."

The shock/awe of someone not knowing what a pharmacist does. Oh, and now that I read the date of the original post, how someone revived the thread. Jesus, I was in 10th grade when this thread was started.
