I remember reading somewhere about a Pharmacist's work schedule being seven ten-hour days in a row, getting paid for working 80 hours, and then being off for seven days.

Is that likely to be retail or what?

Thanks

Or CVS...except at CVS, I believe it's give 10-hour-shifts and then two 12-hour-shifts (on weekends), then 7 days off. You work 74 hours and get paid for 83 or something like that.

Hospital and Retail typically offer the 7 on 7 off deal for anyone that wants to work it

Central fill pharmacies like Omnicare, some mail order pharmacies, and any 24 hour hospital or retail pharmacy.

CVS is 7 12 hour days in a row. Either 8PM-8AM or 9PM-9AM seven days on and then 7 days off. Paid for 84 hours....

Its is 10p-8a at Walgreens, but the waiting list is long for overnight in my area.

That's pretty much the schedule for any night shift position.
