Every job & profession has its difficulties, your opinion reflected that you don't like pharmacy nor medicine, you only want to be a famous person who faces difficuties not who wants to help people to be treated and cured !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know that in the U.S. it can be a very profitable profession because there is a shortage. Companies are offering bonuses to pharmacists because they are having trouble filling jobs. I'm surprised morepeople aren't going into the profession in the U.S,; it does take a while to get one's degree, but the money is very good and the career prospects are very good in the future.

I know they have a lot of responsibility and a mistake can be serious. I also know my pharmacist is always very busy. There are several pharmacies in my small town and they all stay very busy so I think this is a good profession to have.

You are 100% right, my dear friend, Lucy, as pharmacists are actually the most busy persons in their pharmacies, factories or research centers.

African Golden Cat  - The African Golden Cat is a little-studied cat. This cat of medium height and weight has a remarkable coat that has been known to change colors throughout the cat's life. Due to this cat's habitat, the African Golden Cat is a truly rare member of the exotic cat family.

I know absitively posolutly nothing about pharmacy. However, I do have a very close friend who is a pharmacist. She is from Mozambique who was repatriated to Portugal when Mozambique received its independence in 1975 or thereabouts. She didn't get into pharmacy until her late 40's. After finishing her schooling she worked in a pharmaceutical lab and then later also became a professor at the University of Lisbon. At the age of 62 she opened a pharmacy on Porto Santo Island in Madeira, the only one there, and I attended the inauguration. She retired, finally at the age of 70 and has returned to the continent. And there you have it.
