work at Walmart or Longs Drugs: pharmacy tech? Hello. I wonder what decision should I make. I recently got hired by Longs drugs and worked as a pharmacy technician for about a week. The distance from my house to that longs drugs is around Trip distance: 21.32 miles Time: 28 mins The Walmart gave me a call after I turned in the application almost a month ago. They said they would like to hired me also. There distant from my house is Trip distance: 12.69 miles Time: 20 mins I want to ask opinion which one should I work for. The thing is I'm still a student and I want to have the best opportunity out there. Here is a brief comparison: salary: walmart: $13/hr starting Longs drug: $14/hr starting hours: Walmart: 20-40 hrs Longs drugs: 21-29 hours Distance: walmart : 20 minutes, 12 miles Longs drugs: 28 minutes, 21 miles I wonder what I should pick. How is walmart better or longs drugs better? If i calculate it right, even tho longs drugs is a dollar more, the time and gas money to travel there is about the same as Walmart. Is the benefit for both the same? Would Longs drugs be more fast pace and mroe work than Walmart? I'm a student, so I just don't want to be too tired after work cause I still need to study. I signed all the paperwork and I'm a little scare to quit Longs drugs but I know it'll be better to quit asap if it is possible. Walmart location is best because it's only minutes away from my fiance.

Should i do the pharmacy technician course? Hi i am a fulltime undergraduate student and my major is Pharmacy. I work in a retail store and it is really hard for me to study and work there. This is coz that job is much to physical and i become tired of lifting heacvy loads for 8hrs. So i am thinking to do pharmacy tech course for two reasons, one to get a good salary and i can also have some idea about my major. But problem is after doing this course i wont be able to do any fulltime jobs as i am a fulltime student. So my question is can i do any part time jobs after doing this course ,esp in the hospitals? I also want to finish my study for pharmacy so i also have to give time to my study. Doing a fulltime job will be hard for me. What do you suggest? Are there any part time oppertunities here (USA)?Please help me.
Choosing between PharmD. and Pharmacy Technician in STL, MO? I'm currently attending a state U in PreMed but have been wanting to get onto a Pharmacy track. However there are only 2 pharmacy programs in MO and they are both 6 yr tracks for those out of HS. I hope to transfer to STLCOP but I know they don't accept very many transfers. Would it be tough switching to pharmacy tech after my second yr at the state U? I'm not sure if it's an undergrad program or not but I'd plan on doing it online so I can hold a full time job. Aside from the salary dif, can anyone tell me what would be a better idea? My other choice is to finish my bachelors in chemistry and apply to a school over in IL but I'm not sure if I want another four yrs living away from home. Moving back and forth is a hassle. Any advice would be wonderful!
How much do Walgreen's Pharmacy Technicians make? I haven't been to school yet to become a certified pharmacy tech, but I have eight years experience working at a Veterinary Hospital as a Vet assistant and animal caretaker, so I have dealt with medications before.

I want to start at a drug store, so I can work my way up to a hospital to get higher pay, but without having to go to school. Any information about this will be greatly appreciated. I have taken medical courses at a community college too. I live in NC
CVS Salary? I have been working at cvs for nearly 18 months. I started as a cashier and have been trained in the photo department. And I started working in the pharmacy where I am being trained as a pharmacy tech. I am usually on time, everytime someone calls off I go in to work, I stay after my shift if someone is late. I go in and start working without having to be told to. I am good with customers. And I am not trying to sound conceited but I do a very good job and i work my butt off for this company. Should I ask for a raise because they are only paying me minimum wage?
Pharmacy vs Chemical Engineering? I'm wondering which direction I should go in. Currently, I am deciding where to go between these schools: Rutgers Pharmacy, Georgia Tech's Engineering, Northwestern's McCormick School of Engineering (currently waiting for Cooper Union). I hear both directions are difficult and really time consuming (not to mention I have terrible time management). I love chemistry, so both pass in that regard. However, are there any more reasons to go to one place over the other, besides the cost (I live in NJ). maybe: - Salary Difference - Job Availibility - Other insider info on the specific schools - etc. thanks, i greatly appreciate it!

Should I SUE the company? easy question, HELP PLZZZZZZZZZZZ...? I started working for this company 3 years ago as a cashier for $7.25 an hour, then after 1yr got transferred to its pharmacy department to get $9.00 an hour, just before changing my salary, they transferred me to another pharmacy, I thought the new manager was going to change it, but he didn't so after telling him that the old employer had promised to change it, he said that I needed to know more to get more money(pharmacy tech certificate). so after waiting for 2 years to get $9.00 an hr while other tech in my job get at least $11 an hr, and after getting my pharmacy tech certificate last month they still haven't changed my salary. This is my second yr in college, i'm getting my associates degree in science, don't u think i desever more? Should I sue them, n how much?
any pharmacy techs out there? im thinking of going to school for a pharm tech. Is there a need for them right now? Do you get a decent salary? Can you give me the pros and cons of this field? Thanks!
which career is best? Im in a dilemma..Im trying to figure out if i should with pharmacy tech or medical assistant. Im interested in both careers, so now im looking at which one pays the most. I went to salary.com and it said that Pharmacy Technicians make more than Medical Assistants. I didn't understand because you get an A.S. Degree with A degree in medical assisting and a certificate in pharmacy tech. I was so confused. But i do have a little medical experience because i have worked as a phlebotomist before, so i probably will get paid just a tad bit more anyway. I live in South Carolina, so i would like to know the pay here, and also atlanta, that is where i plan to relocate once I get experience. If anyone knows please help Thanks!!
