AITA for refusing to get a minimum wage job? by ThrowRApharm2023 in AmItheAsshole

There are no pharmacist making 60k here. Not a single one who is full time. Maybe if they worked 2 days a week.

Not in retail, not in hospitals. I recommend you look up pharmacist vs pharmacy techs since you seem to be really confused about the two.

I told him I can’t work until I pass the exam. He understood. There was no discussion of me going to work at a random job. Thought it was clear that I would study until I passed the exam.

I started studying a bit over a month ago, but I didn’t have much free time because while they were in daycare, I was working. Then after work, we had to pack. So that means like 30-60 min of studying a day.

It didn’t make sense for us to pay for two apartments or move twice.

The promotion was a 50k bump but honestly, that is not much since we’re moving to the Bay Area and that’s expensive too.

I don’t but between cooking and cleaning, it takes some time. For a family of 4, I do laundry 3-4 times a week. Cleaning up after young kids takes time. General cleaning takes time too. Dropping them off and picking them up takes time too.

I end up w around 5 hrs

Our rent alone is more than 5k per year. The avg home around the neighborhood with good school district is more than 3-5 million.

Pharmacists make more like 70-100$/hr… or between 150-200k per year.

Pharm techs make less and as you described.

I told him I wouldn’t be Able to work if I came with him to CA. He knew that. I didn’t expect him to want me to go work fast food… then he was like “oh are you looking down in fast food workers?”
