2. Can't imagine why Pharmacists would be fed up

Considering most of these pharmacy brands have done a good job of pointing out all of the many, many services they can provide under one roof how can we be surprised? Many of these places have become a refuge for those in need. AND it's overwhelming. These large pharmacies are often open much later. Finding someone in the medical profession to talk to you at 9pm or even midnight doesn't happen anywhere else but the emergency room. The hours are long, staffing shortages are real, and no one ever gets caught up on the orders coming in. In addition, increasing numbers of people that are homeless or near homeless look to the neighborhood pharmacy for everything.

Until companies decide that increasing dividends for investors is not the #1 goal, this doesn't change in any industry.
