from pharmacy, didn't like them..sm
I use the gel mouse rest and also a wrist rest in front of the keyboard.  I also make sure to take LOTS of breaks.  I also have a paraffin tub but rarely use it.
canadian pharmacy
Hi, I've used feelbest.com (located in Ottawa, Ontario) numerous times and have had nothing but good results -- give them a try!
I would call the pharmacy. sm
My pharmacist has let me know on more than one occasion that my doctor prescribed something that should not be taken with the meds I am already on. Scary! Good luck!
I did pharmacy tech for a while.
Studied up on math for a couple of days, didn't take a course or anything. Passed the test. It's pretty much a crap job, too. $12 an hour, low person on the totem pole, lots of negative coworkers.
Canada pharmacy recommendation

I've personally used this pharmacy in Canada by mail and they have been great.


 


Pharmacy tech in my area (sm)
is pretty well paid. Plus a lot of insurance companies that are hiring pharmacy techs are requiring you to have coding. So this is all a work in process to get the most education I can get before going back into the work force. I am not going to be able to work full-time but I would like to know that I have gotten the best education I can to do what I have planned to do.

I like the "science" of the pharmacy tech profession...at least the part of it that works with the total parenteral nutrition compounding etc.
I'm looking into pharmacy tech or polysomnography.

New career/pharmacy tech? s/m
OK - let's hear it. I think it's time to get away from transcribing, and I'm researching taking a course for pharmacy tech. Anybody do this, know someone who does it? My kids will both be in college within the next 2 years, so crappy shifts and teen supervision will not be an issue anymore. The good and the bad, please!
Thanks to all --
My son has been a pharmacy tech for about 10 years (sm)
and is now back in school to become a radiographer. I believe his course was about a year long, and he had to get about a year's experience in a drugstore before getting hired at a hospital. The hospital pay is much better (he makes about $20/hr in Portland, OR) and is less stressful in his opinion because he prefers being in his little cave mixing IV chemos to waiting on customers. Still, it's a dead-end job in the sense that there is nowhere to go from here; you can't be promoted to pharmacist, for instance. He's still young and has decided he needs to make more money and do something that might offer more opportunities over time.

My understanding is that there will be lots of jobs open to pharmacy techs in the future, so if it sounds like something you'd like to do, go for it! Good luck to you.
I should also say that DD #1 started out at a grocery store pharmacy
then went on to the hospital after 9 mos or so.
I interviewed to work in a pharmacy ... haven't heard yet, but -- sm
the company will send their pharmacy clerks to classes and pay for pharmacy tech certification, even though it is not required in New York state. Waiting to hear back from them this week.
