This is a professional( think PhD) program at my school... They set their application requirements... You either meet them, or you don't... Tough ****...


And since around 300 people apply and they only accept 80.... They get to pick and choose...

Think of it like Oxford, G. They have certain standards and criteria to meet. I'm sure Sidney could find a pharm school around the country that would accept him.

Well, if you're sure you're not getting in anymore and this is something you really want to do, take a deep breath, and try again.
If you just missed your chance this time, you'll surely make it next time.

Exactly... I'm sure I could get in somewhere else... I just can't really afford anywhere out of state...

I'm sure there are plenty very good schools you can go to. (just don't put Pelicanparts breakfast club on your list of extra curricular activities... )

See thats the other HUGE issue here... I am so fed up with my boss that I really don't know about the pharmacy thing anymore. I think I would enjoy it in another environment... I have to get out before I go nuts... There will be another application period in August...


Oh and while there are other schools, my full ride for 5yrs scholarship is only good in OK....

Go out, get some distraction, think things over when your head is fresh.

And change jobs if you're not happy where you are now. (what about that other offer you got some time ago?)

Part of that other job was contingent on me starting school... Once I start school I can work as an intern and be damn near as useful as a full fledged pharmacist... I will go talk to that Pharmacist on Friday.... I don't see myself staying much longer than a month at my current job....

I have been very tempted to quit twice in the last week. I've just had enough of being expected to do everything for minimum wage when my boss has enough money to take his family to Disney world for a week.... He doesn't even really pay me enough to cover the gas I spend driving to and from work....

You should earn more than gas money. Talk it through with mister bossman. I'm sure he must acknowledge your capabilities.

I'm playing catch up this morning. The wife and I completely disconnect every tuesday evening, no phones, tv, computers, and I usually have a plethora of emails to handle on wed morning

not worth it today. I usually really like our tuesday evenings but she had a tooth yanked out yesterday. She was a little bit grouchy.

Morning Rico.

How's the disconnecting working out for you? Are you both enjoying the quality time? Hopefully you do.

EDIT, pulled teeth can be real partypoopers... unless she has no teeth left... (G, shut up!)



I had a Plethora once, boinked her brains out and dropped her off at her place the next morning. I think she was from the Czech Republic... J/K

Now G, if you were really good, you would go back to her place, boink her brains out, wipe yourself clean on her curtains, and make her leave.

Making her leave her place?? Easy, I tell her she needs to get me some fresh croissants....

(note to self, stay away from Rick's curtains during visit...)

These curtains would get you to hospital in a hurry....


(these are made for gentle scraping, not for vivid wiping...

Those blinds don't scare me, round these parts we use these to trim the hair around our junk.
