Pharmacists are the most class conscious people, because whenever your doctor prescribes a brand name drug and you don't have insurance they're always like "Yeah fuck that, the generic is the exact same thing."
Literally every single time a doctor has tried to pull this shit on me (likely because pharma companies spend a lot of money doing all sorts of dubiously legal bribery), the pharmacist has had my back.

Solidarity with pharmacists.
I once had a doctor explicitly tell me I should try to overrule the pharmacist if they try to give me the generic drug. They told me, to my face, that the brand name one would be more effective.

The pharmacist's response?
"He lied."
See also: Nurses.
Nurses are as heroic as fire-fighters in my mind, and while you may have had a bad experience with individual nurses they by and large perform the most critical life saving care and get almost zero credit and respect for it.
Everyone saying that there is some medical reason for this: Gotta be honest, I have a difficult time believing it's some special tech the pharmacist doesn't know about despite it being their field of expertise and not, you know, the $10 000 all inclusive retreat pfizer sponsored.
gonna have to do a video about how pharma companies get away with bribing doctors, I guess.
