For pharmacists out in California that get paid hourly, how is it possible to get everything done without working off the clock?
For those pharmacists that are "salaried"- where do you draw the line between coming in early and staying late?
Our store had well exceeded scripts budget for last year, but still ended up losing all of our pharmacist overlap and a LOT of tech hours. PIC is now staying over almost 3 hours after each of his scheduled shift and is expecting other pharmacists to do the same because we are 'salaried' (even if all the readyfills are done).
Apart from having things do outside of work/personal life, I don't think its worth the risk to stay over that much (i.e. making mistakes from exhaustion) and that it only shows corporate that the store doesn't need hours if we are constantly getting everything done when the hours are being cut.
