To angry upset pharmacist


Lately, I have been enlighten with several blogs by pharmacists to list their detailed unhappiness or other work related issues. Reading anything that is derogatory or has any negative connotation about pharmacy profession disturbs me. Those attacks to pharmacy profession are child like acts and very immature reflection of who they are to general public is not called for. One comment I remember from these mole of pharmacy profession is that if you don't like it don't read it, referring to their blog. I have a conviction to that. If you don't like it get out of profession. I believe that door has open door policy.
Perhaps, some of these pharmacist need to get psychological help to privately complain about their unhappiness or attain caring spouse who will listen and tolerate their complaining. Perhaps, they are depressed and being an intelligent pharmacist they could only conveyed their depression to what they don't like, "work".
Who likes to listen to complains or negative anything? I sure don't. Perhaps these unhappy or angry pharmacist should try a different profession. I had an opportunity to work at various career before attending pharmacy school and every job has its ups and downs. Pharmacy profession is respected by community, well paid, and yes we do help sick and elders which sometimes could be difficult because they are not well and aged. I tend to get irritated easily when I feel ill and recently I caught a common cold that is going around and I could firmly state that I was short to some people that I have encountered during my recovery. I was very easily irritated and didn't care to socialize or be polite or meet any standards of typical etiquette. Does that remind some of our customers, yes. Our job as pharmacist is to listened (at least try) and give them hope that they will feel better soon. I believe in power of white coat and that those miracle pills to work but miracle of mind is far stronger and more effective than any drugs that financially motivated pharmaceutical companies will produce. I believe that humans body is parallel to human mind that everybody has both individual mind and body. One drug may work great for one person but have no pharmacological activity on others (like that term controlled studies with placebo). It is part of the job and it's our job to help them get better or at least feel better about themselves.
In conclusion, if you have nothing nice to say or write don't write it. Be a man, a woman, a role model to society at least reflect as positive caring person and you will become that. Perception, may be. But that perception will become of you when other start respecting you as such person.
I will continue with this subject later time....
