      The lowest paid pharmacy workers earn 27,746 euros per year, before taxes.

      In the Netherlands, a pharmacist is a protected proffesion that require a specific university 3-year university master’s degree, with a mandatory 1000-hour internship (for a pittance, of course).

      The median national income for everyone is 43k, so yeah, they really should be getting a raise!

        it’s insane how standard it is to exploit healthcare workers just because they can’t really strike without killing people, nor can they quit without the knowledge that people will die as a consequence since no one else wants to do the shit work for shit pay.

        It’s just a tax on having a conscience, the more you care about others the more you can be exploited.
