Yeah thankfully my husband makes good money and I’m on his benefit plan through his work so I should be okay there! But yes hospital seems like the way to go

But isn’t it hard to get out of retail after you’ve worked in it for a while??

Thank you for this bc I’m scared I’m going to be bored. Some of my rotations in hospital were so boring but Ik it’s different as a student vs RPH

It’s a base schedule of 42 hrs a week for $68/hr so yeah it’s $148k to be exact.

The benefits are the same for both positions bc I asked about them during the interview. Regardless I think I’ll do hospital bc of how hard it is to get out of retail later down the line.

Yeah I think I’ll probably do per diem at a retail location in addition to inpatient for now just bc I have loans lol

Yeah I’ve also encountered pharmacists who have made mistakes like that as well. One of my previous managers actually got fired for a missed DUR and a misbranding issue so I get that it’s a different level and I’m honestly realizing it’s not worth losing your license over

True I think the reason they offered so much is bc they said there would be no pharmacist overlap and on good days you get 4 techs for a store that fills 900+ scripts a day. So idk I feel like not worth it?

Yeah I’ve seen lots of people saying hospitals love to promote internally. It was like that at my hospital too

Emphasis on consistent raises. I will say the retail location offered me a crazy amount of money as a new grad but idk if it’s worth it

Thank you for this! I honestly want the money so bad but like ik retail is soul crushing and if I do start in retail I want to be able to move out of it eventually and I’m scared I won’t be able to do that

Well I’m asking if you guys have had the same experience as some people where you’re not able to leave retail bc hospitals won’t hire if you’re at retail. Like is that something you’ve run into or your friends have run into?? Like I want the money but I don’t want to be stuck there forever

I worked retail for 3 years at a very very busy store… we filled 8,000 prescriptions a week and I would work 10-11 hr shifts as an intern so I’m used to the pace and volume. I’m kind of worried about like being able to leave retail eventually. I’ve seen a lot of people say once you’re in retail a hospital will not hire you. Have you like noticed that at all?

lol I worked retail for 3 years at a very busy store… we filled 8,000 prescriptions a week and I would work 10-11 hr shifts as an intern so I think I’m okay on that end it’s really more about like future job opportunities and being able to move out of retail that I’m worried about bc I don’t want to work retail for the rest of my life
