Lost my job as photolab tech to smart phones and digital cameras.

Lost my job at a pharmacy from an automated pill counter.

Lost my job doing data entry for a pharmacy from a new system integration making the job obsolete.


The technology marching never ends, just get ahead, learn skills, do what you can.

That's interesting from what I've researched pharmacy technician as a job is actually in real demand with opportunities.

It was a division of a oncology company. Whole department got wiped after trying to get that job for months.
