Haha fellow introvert! It’s so cool to see commonalities from the other side of the world! 😊🥰

Ahh i love when other pharmacists comment on my videos🥰 TY!

First of all, thanks Cristian! And yes for sure there are problems in Korea too haha i’m just selectively showing the good part😂 but i’d love to know your thoughts on why you think working in cvs or walgreens sucks?

@@davin__ Hello Davin! Working in the those chain pharmacies can take a toll on you. First they're all about metrics. You have a quota on flu shots, and encourage refills. They'll have you stand there asking people for the flu shot. Here people are not really into getting it. Those that are will come by and ask for it. If you don't meet a certain amount of flu shots the pharmacist will have to talk to the district manager or their boss for the reason why goals haven't been meet. The only thing that matters are the numbers, not what is best for the patients. Lack of staff, and no support. Sometimes there is only one pharmacist and one pharmacy technician taking care of the work. Sometimes it gets so busy that there is no time for a break. In some pharmacies you have drive thrus, the worst thing that could have happend to pharmacy. It's bad enough you have to take care of the people in the pharmacy you now have to take care of the people in the drive thru, and the people (or doctors) calling the pharmacy. And when problems pile up it gets stressful. Patients. I don't know about South Korea but people here can be very nasty. Sometimes people are angry about the cost of their prescriptions. Some medicines are very expensive. Others are just nasty just for no reason. I understand that some people are sick or worried but being nasty is not going to make them feel better, I wish they understood that. Not to mention the drug addict that can be difficult to deal with. I don't know if South Korea went through the opioid epidemic or something similar. This made working in pharmacy a hassle and at times dangerous. A lot of times people are angry for something and it's not even the pharmacy's fault. We get to be the patient's punching bag, and it gets old fast. Proper staffing and better traning can help with this, but that sometimes is not an option. Pharmacy is a cool profession but I feel like, at least here in the US, the whole system sets people up to fail. I wanted to be a pharmacist, but became a pharmacy technician first. I'm glad I did beacuse I got to experience what working in pharmacy was really like before committing to studying pharmacy. There are some nice pharmacies to work in, I don't want it to sound like all pharmacy is like what I wrote. Anyway, hope this message is helpful. All the best, Davin.🙂

Hi! It’s @rimdvv 😊

Thank u❤️❤️

I’ve never worked in a pharmacy at another country, but I’m pretty sure it’s not that big of a difference here either haha Frankly, I also don’t have much time to talk to customers/patients at pharmacies that are super busy :)

I also finished Wednesday in one day good choice 😂👍

Hi Ramisha! I actually don’t know about this so i had to look it up. First, you need to take 2 tests. One is the pre test for the pharmacist test and if you pass that one, the next one is the actual pharmacist test. Also, you need to take a Korean test if you’re a foreigner. For the details of the test, check this official test website. www.kuksiwon.or.kr/subcnt/c_3120/1/view.do?seq=7

Hi Agne! First of all, there are pros and cons of being a pharmacist but i think the pros outweigh the cons (for now). I have a lot of respect for doctors but personally i’ve never thought of studying medicine since it requires such an extensive period of studying and training. If you’re into science and would like to make money, i would def recommend medicine. But in the end it really comes down to what you find more interesting! Hope this helps:)

@@davin__ It does help a lot, thank you for answering! ^ ^
