Okay, a couple of questions...
(Btw, I searched the forum, and found something similar to an answer I might be looking for, but it was all "I heard of a pharmacist who..." and "my friend said that...," so I'm looking for solid answers lol)
1) First off, besides retail, do pharmacists in other areas (clinical, nuclear, etc.) have significant opportunities for overtime work on a regular basis? And if so, roughly how much per week?
2) If overtime is available (and I'm including retail this time), do pharmacists get paid time-and-a-half? I've heard both yes and no, and I'm sure it varies from place to place but I wanted to get a general idea.
I start pharm school next year, and I was considering working overtime each week after I get out to help dig my way out of 100K of debt. I'm already pullin in 50+ hours b/w school and 2 jobs, so yeah lol
