I am a pharmacy technician. The pay is not great, but it is a very fulfilling job. I am on my feet for 8 hours of the day, running around like a short order cook. A pharmacy technician solves insurance problems, handles customer service issues, and fills Rx's. They do everything except verify Rx's and take scripts from doctors. I would recommend this career to anyone considering a career in pharmacy or even healthcare. All aspects of healthcare are dealt with as a tech.
The Rx symbol used in pharmacology was originally as astrological sign for the planet Jupiter. Its use originated in the Middle Ages when doctors believed that planets influenced health.
