Pharmacy Technician - (City withheld for privacy), Ohio, United States
I now finally realize that being a certified pharmacy technician is a joke. It took me 8 years and $8,000 to realize it, but now I do. We are treated like crap by pharmacists, look down at by nurses and physicians (which would be semi worth it if our pay wasn't such crap), our job is demanding and you need to be sharp and smart, but we get paid crap, no matter how many years of experience you have.

Why being crosstrained doesn't pay!
Pharmacy Technician - (City withheld for privacy), Kentucky, United States
I started as a cashier in the front end, then was cross trained to the pharmacy. I did all their little computer training programs and still after a year + wait they still haven't RA Certified me, and better yet I was screwed out of a big bonus for sales and then, told even when my job title is changed I still will not be paid what a technician makes. I am in college right now to become nationally certified and I am planning on looking for employment elsewhere.
