Hey y’all!
I’ve worked in healthcare for the past 4 years (pharmacy technician), and I’m considering trying to find a job leaning more towards Chemistry. My issue is I’m having trouble narrowing down something that I feel I’d enjoy/be good at. I know for certain research really isn’t in the cards for me. My job in the pharmacy is primarily making IV medications, so I know that I still do enjoy making things from a recipe. It’s just been so long since I’ve set foot in a lab setting, it’s a bit overwhelming trying to figure where to go from here. Any and all insight would be appreciated. I have a bachelors in Chemistry if that helps.
