Hey, guys!
I am a foreign grad currently working for chain pharmacy in Los Angeles, CA. It's horrbile. Patients are demandign, treat u anyway they want, and you can not say anything - because a customer is a client that brings money to the company. The area where I work makes it even worse - Los Angeles.(everybody thinks they're celeibrities and VIP.)

I tried to get out of retail - like to go to the hospital. HOspital requires 1 yr residency (they pay u like 40.000$ /year). I didn't mind doing it just to get out of retail. But the problem is... I have B.S. in pharmacy, not PharmD!!! So very few residencies for B.S. degreed pharmacists!!! I either have to get PostB.S. pharmd or get another degree like M.S. or PhD to get into research...

DID anybody do hospital residency with B.S. degree??? DID anybody get postB.S. PHarmD?
