Well, I went to talk to a pharmacist today. Actually, I spoke briefly

with four of them, and none of them work with volunteers. The

counselor that I had talked to at the career center mailed me

something from snagajob.com about an opening for a pharmacy intern at

K-Mart. I hesitate to apply for that, because it lists the hours as

" Full-time Part-time " and if I were to get it, I would probably have

to give up my job at Wal-Mart. I know I only make just above minimum

wage as a sales associate, and I definitely want and need to do

better. It's just that with jobs being so hard to get these days, I

don't want to quit the one I have now unless I know for sure that I

will like and can deal with the stress of being a pharmacy technician.

I am willing to either go to school, or continue to study for the exam

on my own, but my question is this: Where might I find an opportunity

to volunteer at a pharmacy (retail or hospital) or something like " job

shadowing " just so I can get an idea of what it's actually like?

Please help.
