Default Re: I need help on what to do about my pre-reg

Rafhelp,
Let me get this straight - you did 6 months in a hospital placement that you hated, then you did pre-reg in community and hated that.

Are you certain that you are cut out for pharmacy?

On top of that i have been accused of 'thinking that i know than/and am better than technicians). But to be honest if after 4 years at uni i dont know more than most technicians then the course cant have been that good at all.
In any environment a technician working there full time is likely to know more about the systems and how to work in that environment than a newly arrived pharmacist (registered or otherwise).

Ive been in situations where the boss will get all agrresive/stressed out with you over little things such as not sticking bag-labels on straight,
OK master of the communication discuss the importance (or otherwise) of bag labels being stuck on straight?

I mean after spending 23-24 years in fulltime education, completing a masters degree, a dissertation and giving numerous presentations at university is putting a bag label on straight beyond your technical ability, too time consuming, makes it too difficult to find bagged prescriptions or perhaps a straight label fails to give the impression of haphazardness that you wish to convey to the customers.

Because he was trying to get through to you about something really easy peasy that affected the impression of care that his business gave to his customers that you dismiss as "little" - and then somehow it's his fault for not taking his frustration with you out on somebody else at the other end of the phone.

Now while I can sympathise with someone who finds a pre-reg tutor they can't work with - you do seem to be in danger of letting it become a habit.
