I've been a retail pharmacist for 3 years. While I enjoy the fast-paced work,
I find it increasingly difficult to cope with the stress that builds up from
the day. The demands placed upon me from this particular chain and customers
is just too much.

Any pharmacists have advice for me? Options include completing a residency,
hospital, compounding, nuclear, managed care, industry....is there anything
else? I have a PharmD, no residency, and just 3 years experience. Willing
to explore any job or take any path that may or may not be pharmacy-related.
Also willing to volunteer, take less pay, whatever it is...I just want to be
happy. Just can't work with the public directly anymore, retail setting does
not help. I have seen the worst in people. I need a break from all that.
