Are the rumors about a longer and earlier flu season and a hard Covid winter true? I'm not personally noticing an increase in patients who need prescriptions for flu-like symptoms but it seems to be what everyone's talking about in and outside of the pharmacy. Can anyone weigh in?

Hi! I have recently taken a step back from my Doctorate in Physical Therapy and am trying to find my next move. My family keeps recommending medical sales, my bank account recommends finishing the degree that cost me an arm and a leg, and my heart is conflicted in so many areas of interest - PT, Psych, sales, etc. I am currently working as a patient care technician but do not see this as my end goal. Any recommendations on sales vs PT vs psychology vs really anything? Thank you!!

I’ve been out of work for a significant amount of time due to Covid decimating my industry. I’ve gone on many interviews and had a few final rounds. I finally received an offer today. The pay is more than I’ve ever made & team seems great. I just can’t help but feel a little disappointed bc it’s not the industry I was in before which was the whole reason I went to law school to begin with. A bird in hand is worth two in the bush, right? Anyone experience a similar situation? Happy you pivoted?

My wife’s been on Lexapro for a year. She seems to have become almost robotic, cold, not like she was before. She needs it for anxiety and that’s a lot better, but I don’t see as much emotion in her. Has anyone else experienced this?

Any stylist still wear a mask while doing ladies’ haircut? I do not intend to start a debate around masks. I respect everyone’s choice, but I do want to go to one that makes the same choice as I do. Pregnant lady here, would rather be over careful. Thanks!

Um, I feel like my BF of almost 4yrs (1 living together) and I are on the brink of separating. I think COVID is putting it into perspective. We’ve gotten through the worst of the quarantine while supporting each other as best we could (very thankful for him). But his coping skills with stress (during covid) are lacking and as things progressed he’s just been taking it out on me more and more in the moment, then he feels awful for not treating me as well as I deserve (he treated me well before..)

I got admitted to hospital since I was unwell. How can I apply for cashless medical claims as I downloaded one form from general medical insurance plan. Can someone suggest me

When is the best time to disclose your disability? During the interview phase, when you first start, or when the issues first come up and you need accommodations?

Have any of you ever used the short term disability option, long term disability, FMLA etc. to handle the time/stress of fertility treatments or related issues such as pcos or endometriosis? Would love to talk to you to get insight.

Everyone coming into NZ from somewhere else will now need to self quarantine for 14 days. And no cruise ships can dock until after 30 June. Good luck my fellow Antipodeans.

We are adding Ganirelix to our routine tonight - I’m pretty scared as the doctor said it can hurt even more than the menopur. 😱 Can anyone validate??

Has this happened to anyone else? I used to eat a lot of unhealthy, processed foods a few months ago. I transformed my ways and have eaten quite healthy since. Today I ate some cookies and chips after a long time, and I feel like shit. Stomach upset, heavy chest and just really lethargic. I know the lesson is to not eat unhealthy, but I didn’t think it would wreck my body like this

Pharmacist

Hi all!

I'm a UK pharmacist hoping to qualify and work in the US. Is it still worth doing or any tips in general? I've read on Reddit there's a surplus of Pharmacists in the US. What are your views on that?

Thanks!

What do you wish you knew before becoming a Pharmacist/Starting Pharmacy school? A new tech asked me this after I agreed to mentor her.

Hi Pharmacists!
What were your raise percentages in 2022?
I’m very disappointed with my 2.5% raise considering inflation, my good review, and all the extra effort I put in this year for a good raise. Should I ask for more?

Anyone know the hiring process at children's health and what questions to get prepared for?

Is starting salary of 70k good in retail, or am I being lowballed? MCOL city and have a couple of years of experience. I feel like this is low? What should I do?

A colleague got offered a role at Walgreens for $94k as a fresh grad. Was this just a total rip off from Walgreens or is this actually average base salary for Walgreens as a fresh grad?

Am I the only one that feels like we should have our student loans forgiven? (And I used to be adamantly opposed to ANY student loan forgiveness)
Our salaries continue to DECREASE as cost of living increases (not just “no raises”…decrease!…I realize I’m preaching to the choir haha). I can barely (and by “barely” I mean “can’t” TBH) make bills, pay for kids activities, etc (also a single mom of 3, for more context) LET ALONE pay my loans…
How do we start that movement?…
Who’s with me?! 🤷🏻‍♀️😜

What's the biggest health myth you've heard that you'd like to bust? Mine is that supplements are always a healthier option than prescription or OTC meds. A lot of the supplements on the shelf contain all types of unnatural ingredients and can still be harmful depending on the dosage.

Those of you that have left retail, what would it take for you to go back? I’m hearing about 50k sign on bonuses at the corner locally (up from 20/25k in February). I’ve been unemployed/underemployed for over a year and am still holding out for anything else.

I am leaving retail pharmacy after 15 years. I am opening a 403b pharmacy for a FQHC. I don't believe that retail pharmacy will be able to sustain itself with patient costs skyrocketing. I think people will become enraged or indifferent enough to allow the federal government to take over healthcare. How many times do we see people getting free prescriptions via government coverage that drive better cars than we do?

Are you spending time with family this month or next? My parents are still really worried about Covid since I work in the hospital so it looks like I may be spending the holiday season alone. I understand where they're coming from, but I'm not really sure what to do with myself next week or at Christmas. Tips? Should I try to find a remote pharm manager position?

Have you ever dealt with unsafe work conditions? How did you deal with it when it's not being addressed?

Today i was informed there is a national shortage of techs! Are any of your workplaces experiencing issues hiring pharmacy techs?

a few weeks ago we had a super busy day with scripts and i think i went into ‘autopilot’ because i don’t remember it happening, but i handed out the wrong prescription to someone (before you get mad, i only started a few weeks ago and i’m a junior assistant), out of all people i could’ve given the wrong medication to, it was a blind person. i have severe anxiety already and want to know some tactics to go back to work without guilt? i take guilt very heavy and struggle to get past it all

I have worked in four different types of pharmacy and I don’t really like anything so far. I don’t know what to do anymore. Right now I don’t feel like I can do any of these jobs forever. The types I have worked in are:hospital (pediatrics ), retail, specialty and a call center.
