Back in '08 I applied to work as a technician at CVS and they were wearing scrubs, but the pharmacist made it seem like it was a local decision. So glad I didn't get that job.
Also am I the only person who thinks techs shouldn't be wearing white coats? It gives the impression of clinical training and I think it is inappropriate. It's especially egregious in a hospital setting. Actually, a pharmacist friend of mine once went into the ICU to tell an RN to adjust an IV rate for whatever reason. That same RN later told me that she adjusted the rate after a pharmacy technician told her to. Now, as sad as it was that they thought this pharmacist was a technician after three years of working at the hospital, the really scary thing is that an RN would take orders from a pharmacy tech.
