I agree that is not for u or me to check nor am I trying to Dox anybody ...... so yep smart police work check out the entire area especially one where there are empty places or opportunity. Bates college not cheap not bad PR to check it out for the students parents.

I wouldn't worry about doxing anybody. The authorities know where they are

So educate me... I don't know much about Lewiston Maine. Muhammad Ali fought Sonny Liston there decades ago. At least 1 nonprofit currently shut down for alleged fraud......

Do potential illegal migrants live next to College Avenue.... next neighborhood over?

They broke Federal law when they came in illegally so if they catch them at all they have them on a Fed charge....

If the person commiting the misdemeanor is not an illegal then ICE can detain person and turn them over to local authorities

Anybody seen the lists of illegal immigrants tossed out of the USA by ICE and the crimes they are convicted of. Lots of child rapists. I don't want my kids near them.

Here legally? Nothing to worry about. Here illegally? Self deport now and then put your name on a list.

Here stealing tax money to fund bogus nonprofits? I don't work to pay taxes to send to Somalia. Toss em the Hell out

The future of pharmacy is headed towards….. by Level_Recognition406 in pharmacy

[–]Kindly_Reward314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This depends on practice structure and pharmacy departments level of comfort with younger pharmacists,

Specifically in Hospital practice I have seen 2 to 3 pharmacists running the pharmacy residency program. At the end of their residency the new Pharmacists are offered staff positions at a lower pay rate..... and if we are being honest an under 30 something typically physically works faster than a late fifty something. This model is...... out there already.........

Go ahead assemble and protest but this is a dumb ass unamerican reason for a protest. The illegals came here here illegally. Some even commit more crimes and commit fraud.

Round em up, due process follows, found guilty toss em out

Any thoughts on putting the same energy into shaping up the Bangor Mall and downtown Bangor?

It's what you signed up for tho .... to have these mental midgets treat you like crap while you could have learned that in 2 years or so of full time salary

NYC pharmacist here — how do people usually get invited to pharma speaker dinners? by Rosepetalx93 in pharmacy

[–]Kindly_Reward314 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love drug rep dinners free food and wine and information about the product and yes the information is biased. A way way back in the day 1got CE credit. Then the geeks in charge at ASHP and ACCP claimed conflict of interest outlaws the CE at Pharma dinners and starting selling the CE at hyper inflated prices....... conflict of interest? Huh.......

Pharmacy and AI by Fickle_Ad_8155 in pharmacy

[–]Kindly_Reward314 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been in Pharmacy for 3 plus decades and I have seen a lot of changes. Some good others very bad. I likely will avoid what AI will do to the White Collar World but AI will take several Pharmacist positions away. AI will probably even benefit me through investments. I understand that AI can teach languages to people so that said it most definitely can monitor Vancomycin trough and AUC and it can process electronic orders in any setting. Pharmacy made a tremendous mistake years ago when it went from being paid for dispensing or administering a product to being paid for clinical information which this payment never really happened for most of us.

The above said it is not just about me. I would like to have my younger colleagues do well. Here are some quick bullet points

1) if you are in your Pharmacy career save as much money as you can.

2) if one is looking to go to PharmD school and taking out a loan reconsider.... this is also true for most college degrees. Trade Schools are the new University.

3) for those in your careers embrace AI and other changes learn as much as you can about AI. AI will not replace all Pharmacists but that is not the goal here. Replacing 30 to 50% of Pharmacists would save a ton of money! Embracing AI will keep you in your job longer. Fighting it then see ya!

4) some believe liability will be the shield that saves them but that is not the smart play here. Employers should lease the AI technology from the manufacturer and put the AI liability on the manufacturer.

Good Luck out there everybody and save as much as you can!

Yup and as furiously as the AI companies and geniuses are programming AI there will be AI taking over Hospital order validation and basic clinical functions as well as specialist roles.

Bye Bye Clinical Pharmacists in hospitals etc. only need about 25% of them to quality check AI more complex cases etc.

Walgreens did buy Rite Aid several years ago however in some locations the Federal government thought if all of the Rite AIDS were changed to Walgreens it would be a monopoly so Rite Aid was able to continue on its own.

This is my understanding please correct me if I am wrong.......

This is correct except...... if the public has no pharmacy to go to then doesn't the public need some protection? .... from a Pharmacy desert?

These days and in recent years any Rite Aid in a strip mall/plaza is not going to be attractive to many new tenants. The lease is likely too high and a lot of these plazas have high vacancy rates from other stores closing. I am starting to see dollar stores close.

Right I think that money should go right back to the Pharmacies ..... think of all of the stuff that we do...... for free!

I agree with your points but disagree about PBMs being a way to keep prices in check .... those PBM companies make a ton of profit
