So dont be so cocky in thinking you are smarter than those FMGs...actually FMGs are doing much better clinically than US grads. Now if you meant those NON-US citizens who are FMGs then I may agree with you just because the priority should go to US citizens since the positions are limited. Have a good day.

Not only he has several clinics that he has to supervise I am sure, but also he finds time to volunteer, helping people in need who can't pay and also lectures and does charity.

Lots of free time eh? Must be working hard and catching up on those journal studies... Let's keep it simple. The physicians practice medicine. The nurses provide care on a level of nursing. That's it. End of story. Get over it. Use the limited time you have on this planet in this life doing something that is worthwhile instead of attempting to convince everyone that you are plain crazy and in the process making your profession look horrible. Accept truth. It smooths out the ride of life so-to-speak. Close to a year and Shelly still has the time to come on here and post ridiculously long rants of well… ridiculousness.

Pharmacists are overpaid monkeys. None of the pharmacists I work with are intelligent. They spend their shift just initialing papers to release meds for delivery. What a pathetic way to spend your life? I'm doing my undergrad and have been employed there on a PT basis for about 2 years. I work with pharmacists at a compounding facility.

If you could please explain that to me as I am thoroughly uneducated in that department. I am currently a junior in undergrad, and don't usually have a job other than in the summer. How would this affect me and what are the things I need to know? I believe I will qualify for the IBR, but am just totally lost on the taxes, and what I should do in order to put myself in the best position.
