  1. It's like working in retail, but a lot more stressful

  2. Your best bet at getting stable hours at a good rate is working two towns over

  3. Patients will insist that you look at their rash

  4. The concept of "zero refills" does not register with patients

  5. Wages are going down faster than Valeant stock price

  6. They don't teach you how to use a fax machine in university

  7. Closing time just means "last call" at the pharmacy

  8. You're going to call insurance companies more often than your mother

  9. People insist that they just need Benadryl (diphenhydramine) when their throats could shut any second

  10. You will have contests with your friends to see who can work the most shifts in a row.
