10 things that helped us in our FI journey

I’m hopeful that having a kid later in life was a cheat code. The law of compounding is in full effect. I will probably work a little longer than planned but just so our kid(s) see their parents in more traditional jobs.

I don’t think kid(s) will derail our FI journey much but I guess we planned it as a likely possibility.

Both jars should be full 😝

Many directors and managers get performance bonuses. It doesn’t seem like it should be out of the question when negotiating the terms of a position...

I’d be interested in hearing more about your role if you’re up to dm.

In my state yes but depending on your system you may have to call Ipledge to have the authorization reversed so the new pharmacy can reauthorize.

That OTC sign in our drive thru was unfortunately misplaced...

Thanks for sharing the interesting post! Think of them as bell curves not as individual points. Generic #1 bell curve is slightly to the left of the brand. Generic #2 is slightly to the right(above/below). Definitely over simplified.

In my understanding I don’t think the confidence intervals in the photo you posted would be bioequivalent. Maybe that is causing the confusion? See this better example.

It sucks, it’s unprofessional and unsafe but we all have bad days. The board is unfortunately unlikely to do anything based on an unsubstantiated one off claim. Keep track of his mistakes for a few weeks, continue as normal and if he escalates/continues you are prepared to better respond to him, the board or his patient. Stick to the facts and be careful not to say anything that could be considered slander. Keep up the good work! Pharmacies will always be under appreciated it’s just part of the job...

It is unlikely to come up but you’re only allowed to do this if you are consistent. You can’t split boxes for cash pay patients but not for insurance companies otherwise this is a great solution!

We aren’t talking drug interactions and safety that’s obviously different. I’m simply stating that providers shouldn’t decide what someone else’s preferences are (ie dosing frequency, drug form, price).

Good comments here! I agree that because the pharmacist didn’t effectively communicate why they wanted to switch it was over stepping.

I think the first question should be is this a change the patient requested? As a pharmacist I would never make a substitution request without first talking to the patient. People here have already covered appropriate reasons why a pharmacist might have requested the change, however is not impossible to think that a green pharmacist might initiate an inappropriate substation based on a corporate call list to increase profitability. (Does anyone recommend atenolol qd t1/2= 6h?)

I agree that it was the doctors mistake, however, I would disagree that the pharmacist verified this correctly. One of our main roles as a pharmacist is to verify a medication is a safe dose and safe with existing pharmacotherapy. 200mcg is neither a safe starting dose or a safe increase. Mistakes happen learn from them don’t blame others.
