10 Things I Want For Christmas – Pharmacist’s List

Pharmacist’s “10 Things What I Want for Christmas” List

1.  A set schedule, preferably M-F, Day Shift and nothing else

2.  Patients who tell me how much they appreciate my help.  They like to ask me about my medications.
(for retail pharmacists: They never leave voicemails telling me they want “all their medications”, nor ask me to ring up their coupons)

3.  A boss who acknowledges me frequently for the contribution I am making

4.  Working in a pharmacy that doesn’t require roller skates to keep up with how busy it is.  One that is always fully staffed.

5.  A clinical position, as clinical as I would like it to be

6.  Bathroom breaks & time to eat lunch in peace

7.  Closing the pharmacy on time every day

8. Working with providers who are always open to suggestions and who have perfect handwriting so I never need a magnifying glass to do detective work

9.  No politics

10.  The holidays off every year!
