    Each drug was not necessarily in the same type of container and many drugs were not in a solid form. I had to know what form each drug was in and then figure out how they were measured in the various containers.

The scanner would not allow you to use the incorrect drug unless there was a system error. I also stocked drugs into their correct positions within the pharmacy. During midday, the prescriptions begin to arrive slower. I would be left with few prescriptions to fill, so I tended to learn what the pharmacist was doing or learn more of what the technicians did in their
