As pharmacists have moved from being employers to being employees, we have not been able to take some of the "luxuries" like bathroom breaks and lunch breaks with us.  The pharmacy metric driven corporate philosophy has removed much of the pharmacists ability to be able to sit down for 30 minutes to refresh themselves. I have worked for an employer before that shut the phones off for 30 minutes each day so that the pharmacist could have a break and that was a great time to step away and gather yourself for the rest of the day.  Patients got used to the lunch concept and were for the most part respectful of it. People could still drop off and pick up during this time but nothing would be checked during this time. We need the board to step in and require this for patient safety because without board support the corporations will never implement it.
