  • @answerOfstupids,

    I know security guards and they do make $15 an hour. Toll-takers make between $25-$30 an hour. Pharmacy technicians have the hardest jobs considering that they don't make a living wage.

  • @Shuffle3956 I got my training through my high school. Once i graduated i took the test and became a certified technician.

  • @Shuffle3956 how do you know that, are you sure. Message me please. Are you security guard. 

  • excuse me? 9-19 bucks an hour? you know how many hours it takes to even out on the money you spend to get trained? ps. go becomes a security guard 15 bucks/hour. THAT's minimal training p.s. they pay for your training in most cases.

  • @DiamondPrinces87 There are books you can read and learn from. And you just take the PTCB test and your good to go.

  • @URBNSpice how u did that an what did u do pls tell me i wanna start asap an dnt wanna wait 2 yrs

  • should pay more lil more dont u think

  • @lindardawkins I don't care for it. I consider this professian a bi-polar experience. No special effects,no cute stuff, an no good looking people(Maybe some of them think they are.)

  • I know a friend who used to work as a tech for $9/hour. It is a dignify job, though as you get to wear office attire and a white coat!

    The risk you can run into are having to work with control substance and inventory control of these thing. One pill missing and you are going straight to jail. Other than that, some CVS's pharmacy do required tech to clean rest room. It's a mellow job.

  • I got my PTCB certification through studying the CD-ROM from the pharmacy trainer.com, they have a duplicate print book as well that covers all info of the exam, though it did take me at least 5 months to coordinate a successful job search, I make $12.75 for being certified, compared to only $10.75 for my non-certified co-workers... It pays off =)
