<p>Well. By 2018, supposedly 30% of graduates will not be able to find a job. In my area, there already is a pharmacist excess. Why? Well, as the scuttlebutt goes, it was a conspiracy by the big chains starting about 12 years ago. They convinced the powers that be that there needed to be so many more pharmacy schools to crank out so many new pharmacists for the shortage, which admittedly did exist at that time. So some phenomenal number of new pharmacy schools came into being and therefore there will be an excess in another few years. Now, isn’t that just wonderful for employers who can now drop starting salaries to a more acceptable level (for them) and pharmacists will have to accept in order to work. Nice huh? So glad I’m almost out.</p>
