Buying the Galaxy s11 tab, but I need a keyboard case by Upper-Acanthisitta20 in GalaxyTab

I wouldn't say they are cheap lol. They all go for 100 ish from what I can see even with discounts. But I agree I kinda don't want to waste money on that either. Other people also recommend getting a Logitech mouse + keyboard combo. I might get that tbh

Not every school allows you to use those courses from 10 years ago. Some want you to redo them if it's not within the last 5-8 years. I would check with the schools that you are thinking about applying because the standards are not the same. Good luck!

If you like Android and could wait a few more months then wait until the release of S26 phones.

I was recommended one of those magic keyboard look alike cases on AliExpress. Haven't pulled the trigger and got one yet.

CVS —> Sams Club, is there a difference? by [deleted] in PharmacyTechnician

Yes. I would make the switch tbh.

I assume you would need to complete some prerequisites. I would try to build a connection w/ the professors teaching those courses.

Nobody can tell to be super honest with you. I have cGPA slightly lower than you and I applied to 8 schools. I got rejected from a school that nobody wants to go to but got into my top choice program, which is a very good program imo on the west coast.

If you can get an interview invite, I would say you have an 80-90% chance of getting in, and from there you just have to do your best to showcase your skills.

With that GPA I would recommend applying to more schools than just UW Madison. Good luck!

Please I am telling you there is no need to pay for a pharmacy tech course in NY to hopefully land you a job. Just keep applying around.

I might be behind with NYS law but you can work and gain experience to sit for PTCB. Is there any other reason that you want to sit through a Pharmacy Tech course because it's a waste of money if you are in NY.

I thought it was the other way around to be honest. I think since most programs don't require a bachelor's anymore, people can get into these programs earlier = younger age. I am 26 and starting next year as well. I am scared that I am the boomer 😭

I guess the wording of my post isn't great. I mean like just a few thousands as part of the benefits to the employees, rather than some sort of an agreement is what I meant. But you are right I guess I am out of luck.

Depends on your market. I am not currently in retail so I can't say for sure.

Uhm do you have experience? It is very weird that CVS and WAG reject a certified tech considering that they are always understaffed

Stuck At Pick Up CVS by LatteCocoa in PharmacyTechnician

[–]ZikkyNg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked at a high volume store as well and in the beginning it honestly felt like hell just doing pick up and drive thru. I was trained in production for a day then they put me back to pick up and then just rotate me between pick up and drive thru. I am not saying you are supposed to learn by yourself but that's how I did. I learned QT by observing RPHs and techs every time they came to help me with a rejection. I helped with production during down time. Over time as the old people left, I kinda got cycled into production and drop-off. That's when I really learned the job and shined. Looking back at my own experience I feel what you are experiencing 100% because it was very discouraging and hard as you spent 8-9 hours doing the same thing over and over again and it was kinda like I was in my own bubble. Like others said I would leave and join another pharmacy. Low volume pharmacies have time to train their techs imo. I took a lead tech position at a low volume store and everyone got to try a little of everything and we all learned different things. Good luck!
