Not just clinical. Grade I pharmacist make about ~20% (hourly wage) more than I was getting paid at a community chain pharmacy, it's ridiculous. But I guess that's the same with any government job

What_the? --> It's obvious from what you do that you are a great pharmacist, but from my experience in working at a chain pharmacy, you are definitely an exception. I'm glad that you are getting support from your head office. When I worked at a chain, they were putting constant pressure on us to increase numbers. They cut a lot of hours from our staffing levels, and would constantly be hounding us why weren't doing as many adaptations, med reviews, recruiting new blisterpack patients etc. that they wanted.
