Wow, I can't believe someone else has the guts to say it.

I hope that, when it comes time for my wife to apply to big law firms, her being able to say "Hey, I've had a tubal ligation, no kids for me" will be a boon. The company won't need to worry about losing their employee for X many months.

On topic: The 1 job/10 years looks better on paper.
 
I would hire the 3-4/ 10 yrs. She would probably be more flexible and adaptive to the new environment.

This is my first measure.....do I enjoy looking at her. It makes my day better when I am around pretty. 🙂

The next thing is the baby issue. I need someone that will work and not have alot of "family" issues.

Then, I would like to see which one can actually enter Rxs correctly and fill them for me to check.

3-4 jobs over 10 years is not experience. Either they have been asked to leave or are flighty. Take the 1 job/10y person anyday

eh who cares, most people dont stay at jobs forever. this isnt the 60s. this is 2010 where most people spend a couple of years and roll out.
 
this was an advice of my old manager....


you DON'T hire attractive colleagues...
nothing but a can of worms

Which one wants to work FT?

I am sure the kids question gets asked right after religion.
 
In this case, they both get an interview and the one that interviews the best get's the job. No offense guys and I like working with attractive women as much as any guy, I'll take an ugly women who can out perform a bathing beauty any day of the week. No matter how hot she is, if I have to pick up 20% of her responsibilities, the looks will get old soon.

You are NOT permitted to ask questions about family life, religion or any other similar area of inquiry in an interview unless you want to spend some warm and cozy time with the EEOC and or your state's equivalent.

know that. it was a joke! :idea:
 
I've known pharmacists who seemed like they could be mean to certain people and not get along with them, but I personally thought they were good preceptors. Once I got to know them, I guess I kinda figured out how to stay on their good side :laugh:

OP, how long did they hold their jobs within the 10 years?

I dunno about the case, but if you had someone who worked at one company for 10 years, and another who worked at 4 companies for approximately 2~3 years each, which one would you prefer to hire?

both are women. both are moms. both could get pregnant again.
i dont know how the interviews go, but i do know that the more attractive one does seem to land more interviews. and she's the one who has had several jobs.
but to get an interview....they don't know what you look like yet in this age of online applications

have an interactive interview.....

I saw this while on rotations. Give them some Rxs and let them enter them and handle customers, insurance, etc.

It depends on the market, if it's stil demanding, them both can be hired. This goes to all field.
 
hire the one who can count faster.
or make them arm wrestle. or spit contest.
or who can balance the shot glass on head.

If it was known that I would take an ELECTIVE medical procedure once every few years that would take me out of work for 3 months at a time, and my prospective employer knew this, they wouldn't hire me.

But if its a woman, oh no, they have the "right" to go through this elective medical procedure.

It's a crock of ****. Nobody is MAKING you have children. If a child magically appeared in a woman's womb involuntarily, this would be different. I could understand how a woman would require a 3 month leave. And I would have no problem with it.

But it isn't.

Some women elect to not have children. They put their career first. Some women put family first. Those that do not have children should be rewarded in their careers as such.

We've had this argument before. As an argument enthusiast, it's one of my favorites.
 
I hate when women think they have a right to have certain holidays off instead of others because the other women "don't have kids". Give me a break... As if having children gives you special rights.

In this society, it almost does, Lea... sadly enough.

It should be stressed from a young age, that like driving, reproduction is a privilege.

At least it should be.

shortage of pharmacists during the mid 2000's meant part time mom pharmacists had their way with schedule...coming in and out..dropping kids off...picking up kids...kids to the doctors...dentists etc. I had no choice but to accomodate fully knowing it was unfair to both male and female employees who didn't have to tend kids.

I suspect we will see less of this as there are more and more pharmacists desperate for jobs.
 
Hey mountain,

Come by.. I have crawfish.

Boiled a sack... all for me.
