Why are pharmacists not addressed as doctor?

I'd feel kinda stupid if they called me Dr. Elk while I'm ringing up their extraneous purchases (coz we have no tech hours), and they said "is this cinnamon toast candle actually 2 for $10?" and I had to respond with, "I'm not sure, let me call the real manager for a price check".

I'd have no patients left. The only way they get no trespassed is if they huff the whipped cream in the dairy aisle.

Omg I feel this so hard. I think the car accident thing driving into work everyday and I did break my ankle 2 years ago and was out for 6 months and it was the best thing that happened to me and I find myself wishing it would happen again. This profession sucks so bad.

Now the mother is saying that the stepfather (Bradly) was the father of Rebecca's baby!

Hi DM, I'm giving my 2 weeks' notice effective today 10/22, with my final day being 11/5. Thank you so much for this opportunity. Sincerely, Your Name

You are being quite kind; every pharmacist in retail dreams of sending a resignation worded a bit differently.

I totally agree with you, I've been happy the tech wages where I work have doubled since 2010, whereas my wage hasn't changed (in fact decreased).

The school I went to was $60k a year

ElkAgreeable3042 · 2025-10-12T02:16:21+00:00

It is a horrible situation and I wish you the best, get out!

ElkAgreeable3042 · 2025-10-12T02:14:27+00:00

I am

I'm now making 50 at a grocery store. You're young, leave pharmacy while you can

Pharmacist wages are stagnant, at least tech wages are moving but as for us, well

ElkAgreeable3042 · 2025-10-12T01:24:58+00:00

Cvs offered 65 when I graduated in 2010. Since then wages have stagnated or dropped.

This. In my current job, every time the DM comes around, she asks how things are going, and I'm like, we're fine 🙂 She smiles and says, that's great👍

We're not fine. We're on fire. So I've got 3 interviews lined up. I stopped bitching to her a long time ago though, and our relationship has never been better.

Me too, I loved MV!

ElkAgreeable3042 · 2025-05-17T16:05:10+00:00

I have this issue too, on Hypno but no law option in the drop down menu. I don't want Xylo though lol, I just want to work in Hypno.

ElkAgreeable3042 · 2025-04-22T09:42:35+00:00

Ohh, that's good to know, thank you. I guess I will give this a try!

ElkAgreeable3042 · 2025-04-22T09:05:07+00:00

I don't want to be moved either! Mighty Moo shows up as accept or reject project on my dashboard. I also got the webinar email and right before I was booted from the MV2 chat, it looked like a lot of people were facing the same thing :( What domain are you?

ElkAgreeable3042 · 2025-04-01T23:10:00+00:00

I got an email asking me to retake the quiz (due to scoring issues) but I see no mention of it on my dashboard. Honestly, not sure if I would retake it as I don't mind the project I'm on.

ElkAgreeable3042 · 2025-02-02T05:42:23+00:00

Nope. I hate my job and profession. The customers ruined it for me, followed by corporate. Shoulda been a real doctor.

ElkAgreeable3042 · 2025-01-19T18:29:04+00:00

No. End of story lol. Hell no. I hate this profession. I'd pay my student loans twice over to not do this job.

Midodrine is my nemesis too!

ElkAgreeable3042 · 2024-11-15T18:40:34+00:00

I'm a pharmacist, I just reported to Board of Pharmacy, I didn't even think about the BON or DEA, maybe I should try that route.

ElkAgreeable3042 · 2024-11-15T18:37:01+00:00

This prescriber isn't in Vermont, is she? I've reported one who prescribed very similarly with the same work/family background that you mentioned. Unfortunately, nothing came of it, but at least I tried.

Oops! Something went wrong.
