What are the best and worst parts being a pharmacist?

My name is Anthony, I live in Arizona and I want to be a pharmacist but I am starting to consider that this isn’t the career that I want to pursue. Is it even worth the trouble of going to school and spending the time and money on this career. If any pharmacist or retired pharmacist could answer this tell me if this career path is worth it.

Which do you find better when it comes to the pharmacy world, working in a research lab or a pharmacy in a drug store/hospital?

I have been accepted into a pre-pharmacy program and I am hoping to finish school with a Pharm-D. I feel that a research lab will be better for me because I want to help in finding things like the cure to cancer or the cure to Alzheimer's and I believe that the cure is in medicine. I want to know what its like from different viewpoints and which, in the long run, will be better for me. #medicine #research #pharmacy #pharmacists #pharmacist #medical-research #laboratory #pharmd
