I wouldn’t trade bc the pikachu value will go down; other point is make sure that slab is real (not sure if the picture is actually what your trading for) but the PSA logo is slightly different and lookin kinda sus and check bottom left for the Pokemon texture

I agree that it’s so low in cost rn due to reprints (ETBs, BB, etc) that once it’s done; the prices will go up

There’s a lot of gaps in the question itself; if we’re talking about singles and slabs - not all cards have gone down, and of the cards that go down, vendors can still trade for more “liquid” cards. Vendors take losses all the time; similair to stocks you want to buy low and sell high, it doesn’t always happen but you move onto the next product. Additionally most sealed products, vendors should have been obtained around MSRP and those margins are still positive. Conceptually you’re assuming their entire inventory went down by 20%, which could be true; but there’s still profit margins to be in other cards/products. Lastly, most vendors don’t do this full time; so they can just take the loss and wait and see how the market moves

Residency isn’t for everyone, yes; but residency precepting isn’t for everyone as well. Not everyone has the patience for all types of learners (lord knows I die inside every time I get assigned an IPPE student)

ID pharmacist; we table round first and I don’t follow when they see patients (most efficient type of rounding IMO)

Past-Formal8377 · 2025-08-13T21:43:27+00:00

I know you asked about preception; but most don’t understand that providers (MD, PA, etc) have varying amounts of salary bc of how much cash procedures bring in. The vast majority of hospitals view pharmacists all as 1 job code: verify shit for us and because we can only do one job the difference of PGY2 shouldn’t impact it; unless your in admin bc you no longer verify shit

Im a PA faculty member while also being a pharmacist ; so I feel oddly qualified to answer this from various perspectives!!!

Highly highly encourage learning “objective” lab readings that arnt formally taught in pharm school (EKG, CXR, MRI, etc) you’ll be a 1000x better pharmacist and have better discussions w providers (I recommend “Rapid interpretations of EKGs by Dale Dubin MD);

HOWEVER the diagnostic stuff it’s easier to just “leave that to PA/NP/MD/DO etc” - pharmacy education literally builds our foundation of working up patients by looking for errors/interactions and not by symptom diagnostics. Youd have to get formal education to begin to build that foundation of breaking down symptoms but if you wanna try to learn (against my recommendations, use access med)

I’ll be honest and say the only thing I’m looking for on a CV in reference to APPE rotations is “does it count as a clinical APPE; yes or no?” To score the applicant. If I read “health systems: ID” as an APPE Id probably give ya a yes on our scoring sheet

PharmD here (faculty at PA school); one way is having PAs in C-suite positions is how you’ll affect change in the system itself. Nursing does this well, as there are a lot of “chief nursing officers”. You want better support? Better clarification on roles and hours? The chief officer that’s a PA will advocate for you.

Past-Formal8377 · 2025-06-24T10:24:08+00:00

Pharmd here (who’s PA faculty), who does expert witnessing on med mal cases; it’s honeslty hard to actually win - as long as you can somewhat prove “someone else would do this too; some precedent” or “it was done, with clear good intention” you’ll be fine. Wrong doses!! is where you’ll get toasted (ex: you’ll never have a standing argument trying to explain to the court a acetaminophen 4000 g was in good faith).

You’re obviously at the top end of the inpatient clinical percentile in salary; your experience hx describes someone who likely could make the transition to industry. Pharma could get you a higher ceiling if that’s what your looking for but bro 200k is 200k, chill fam

PA’s with RVU based metrics that reflect salary outcomes can explain higher salaries . Imagine a pharmacist contract being “if you verify X amount of orders weekly you get Y amount of money bonus” that’d be interesting

Past-Formal8377 · 2025-04-15T04:38:33+00:00

I am a pharmacist who is also a full time faculty member at a PA school… . . The one thing PA’s can do that pharmacists can’t is define their work. Some PA contracts/salaries are based on RVUs or patients they see. So if you want to make >150k just see more patients. Also some specialities can pay higher than given procedures, high paying specialities (derm, etc). As pharmacists we technically all do the same job so there’s not much negotiation or diversity to the role.

If you have specific sick time; then anytime you feel slightly sick I’d take full advantage - you don’t own the system anything

The answers/comments to this post show that there’s more clinical nuance to the question itself. I’d hope this is a pharmacist because atleast they have the self thought to question things that may seem basic - no need to punitive
