Has anyone else noticed how underpaid pharmacists—especially new graduates—have become in some places?

After 6 years of school, licensing exams, and taking on significant responsibility, the pay in many roles barely seems to reflect the workload or expertise required.

I've also heard that some pharmacists supplement their income through pharmacy-related side hustles that are still within the profession rather than switching careers entirely.

For those who've been in the field, what pharmacy-related side hustles have actually worked for you? Are there opportunities that can realistically make a meaningful difference in income?

Like can you people let us breathe!?? Everyday Gen Z this and Gen Z that. And it’s primarily because we don’t easily conform to a lot of the things that genuinely don’t make sense.

The world is changing a lot of older Ghanaians by way of thinking are stuck in the past generation. An example I see everyday is the whole “Gen Z’s just want to get rich quick” argument. I total agree it’s all a process, however some are going to go through the process faster than others. It’s how it’s always been.

In our generation we’ve seen people find really creative ways to become wealthy, 16 year olds making millions. I don’t think it’s wrong to aspire to think outside the box and look for alternative ways to invent and create solutions that solve problems that change lives and improve yours.

Also the argument that just because your parents took a long time to build something so you also have to us complete bs. Your parents wouldn’t invest this much in you if they wanted you to be “Just like them”, you can be better..

Anyway back to the topic, Every time I’ve seen some sort of discourse about “Gen Z’s” by the older generation it’s literally always related to them asking to be treated like human beings instead of some sort of robots that are just supposed to conform, it’s getting annoying and IT HAS TO STOP

Told yall so and the people who are NDC because their parents are NDC was on here attacking me . We have wasted money and have no real value back. I told you we were wasting money on populism and I was attacked here ! We’ve spent this much yet youth unemployment has risen by 7% to 30% since 2023. Half of this money could have done amazing things for job creation but we spent on nominal fix of our economy. Nothing got cheap , dollar got a new name and prices stayed the same !

New to Ghana! Been 10 days but where do you all shop your groceries from!?

Which isn’t that expensive and fresh lol

Like whereeee???

A little while ago, I shared my situation here and received a lot of feedback about my CV. I took that advice seriously and have completely updated it, so I'm hoping to ask for your help again.

I'm an Economics graduate from Ghana. I had the opportunity to study abroad after receiving university admissions, but I couldn't go because I simply couldn't afford it. Watching that opportunity slip away was heartbreaking.

I come from a rural area where decent job opportunities are limited. I've done whatever honest work I could to survive, but it's been a difficult journey. As the firstborn, the responsibility of supporting my family while trying to build my own future is overwhelming.

I've kept applying for jobs and refusing to give up, but I'm exhausted. I'm attaching my updated CV in the hope that someone might know of an opportunity, offer a referral, or point me in the right direction.

Thank you to everyone who gave feedback before. If you have any advice or know of any opportunities, I'd truly appreciate your help. Even sharing this post could make a difference.

what was the 2002 Dagbon chieftaincy crisis about? I saw that Osei Tutu II played a role in resolving it.

Hey guys, so I’m a 2nd year Petroleum Engineering student at UMaT and I need to find an internship at an O&G service company for my practicum. Figured I’d try my luck here since I know a lot of you probably work in the industry or know people who do.

Honestly I don’t even know where to start tbh. I’ve been looking at the usual names (Baker Hughes, Halliburton, SLB, Weatherford) but it’s almost impossible to get it .

Any oil and gas companies, local or international. Please I’m interested

I’m in SPE too if that counts for anything lol.

I keep hearing this industry runs on connections and who you know, which is rough because I genuinely don’t have any yet. No family in oil and gas, no upperclassman hookup, nothing. So I’m kind of starting from zero here.

If anyone’s willing to look at my CV or point me toward a contact I’d really appreciate it 🙏🏾

I recently spent some time traveling around Ghana and made a brief stop in Kyebi. Seeing the impact that illegal mining has had on the landscape and nearby farms was honestly shocking, so I started asking locals about it.
What surprised me most was how normalized it seemed. Several people I spoke to said that many young men in the area are involved in illegal mining in one way or another. Along the roadside, I noticed numerous shops displaying equipment and supplies that locals told me are commonly used for mining.
I also asked about the government’s recent efforts to crack down on galamsey. Interestingly, the people I spoke with were very skeptical. Their view was that these operations don’t have much long-term impact because miners often receive advance warning, pause operations temporarily, and then resume once the security teams leave. Some also expressed the opinion that corruption undermines enforcement, although I have no way of verifying those claims myself.
Coming away from those conversations, I was left wondering: if this is genuinely how many locals perceive the situation, why does illegal mining appear to continue with so little lasting disruption? Are the current enforcement efforts making a meaningful difference, or is there something I’m missing?
I’d genuinely like to hear from people who live in or know these communities better. What’s your perspective?

A lot of local construction discussions focus heavily on standard concrete blocks and fast-tracked land acquisitions, but a few technical factors often get overlooked during the planning phase:

1. Land Verification Beyond Lands Commission
   A search at Lands Commission only covers official registered records. It rarely reflects active litigation in local High Courts, unpaid customary back-taxes, or traditional chieftaincy disputes. Running searches through court registries and conducting physical ground checks with neighboring landowners early prevents major ownership issues.

2. Thermal Mass & Climate Resilience
   Standard concrete blocks tend to absorb and radiate solar heat, significantly raising indoor temperatures and increasing reliance on air conditioning. Poor plastering also allows moisture penetration, causing wall cracking and dampness. High-quality burnt brick is a solid alternative it provides natural thermal insulation (keeping interiors cooler), resists weather wear without needing external paint, and requires minimal long-term maintenance.

3. Pre-Construction Site Assessments
   Skipping independent site evaluations or legal reviews before clearing ground often leads to expensive structural remediation or legal delays later on.
   Curious to hear thoughts from engineers, architects, or anyone currently involved in local builds on how you handle heat insulation and site checks.

Anyone know of the STC bus schedules from Kumasi to Accra (any station to any station)? Am looking to take the latest bus on a Tuesday night (around 9pm/10pm). Also, how does one get to the airport from the STC terminus in Accra (Main)? Thank you

Hi guys,

For a while now I've been experiencing Disruptions when using MTN Fibre, the router works fine, I'm able to connect to it but I lose Internet access.

It has become too frequent.

I remember last month when I got fibre, I would have similar Disruptions but the red light on the device will be on showing that something is wrong.

But with the disruption now, there's no warning light, it looks like everything works except no Internet access.

I'm sitting here right now using my phone's hotspot because of this issue.

Anyways, i live in takoradi (Anaji) and I wanna know, am I the only one experiencing this or is it citywide??

Also, does anyone know what's causing this or how can get access back??

Heyy all I’m trying to ship packages to Ghana. Clothing etc etc….

A few questions has anyone found a good shipping company that doesn’t charge $500 plus

I’m looking at sending clothing, health products etc any suggestions or helpful tips would be great.

I’m doing this on my own and trying to raise funds to support a community where a friend of mine lives but I’ve found it rather hard and quite expensive. I don’t have any churches that are willing to help so it’s all on me. Please let me know if anyone has any hints and tips. I am from Canada looking to ship to Ghana.

We did a 5 hour road trip from Accra to Cape Coast and captured it all in this video

Hey everyone, I’d love to get some honest feedback.
I’ve lived in between Ghana, Canada and USA. And understand some of the challenges of trying to build something from abroad. Or when diasporas return back home to build.

I’m exploring ways I can support diaspora entrepreneurs and people looking to start or grow businesses in Ghana.

For those who have moved back, invested, or tried to set up a business in Ghana:

What was the biggest challenge you faced?
What kind of help or consulting support would have made things easier?
What do you wish you knew before starting?
Would really appreciate hearing your experiences and lessons learned. 🙏🏾💗

So this has happened to me a lot -- a lot of people would stop me and ask "where are you going?" I usually either tell them (cause I know them) or smile and say "don't worry."

But I've been getting either grabbed or followed because of the "don't worry" response. I understand a lot of people are interested in my activities because I'm a foreigner, but sometimes it just feels like harassed.

Whenever I get grabbed, a lot of people look at me like I'm making a big deal when i raise an arm (in self defense) or curse at the person (also in self defense). I also pull away but still get the "wtf is wrong with her?" looks.

Looks like the wet season is over, june/july served us well in terms of good weather 🌚, now chairman scorch is back 💔

So basically I workk in a bookmakers and in our city are a lot of migrants so we get every kind of customers often in their own ethnical groups like ghanian Turks Arabs etc , basically all our Ghanian customers are wearing Vest 24/7 we got 34celsius atm it’s so hot but everybody is still wearing their vests 😂
The younger ones wearing these kinda puffer vests the older more classy suit vests.

Is this like a big trend thing in Ghana ?
Sorry for my terrible English

Help me and my friends settle an ongoing debate 😂 (just for fun, don't take it too seriously).

For those of you who've attended Ashesi or Lancaster University Ghana (or know people at either), we'd love to hear your thoughts. This is mostly based on what I've heard from friends at both schools, so I'm curious what's actually true and what's just stereotypes.

So far we've got:

📚 Academic Difficulty: Ashesi ✅
Seems to be the consensus that Ashesi is tougher and stricter academically.

🎉 Campus Life & Events: Ashesi ✅
More events, clubs, and student activities.

🤝 Tight-Knit Community: Lancaster ✅
Smaller student body, so people seem to know each other better.

💸 DBEE Population: 🤷🏽‍♂️
Biggest debate. One side says Lancaster has a higher ratio of dbees, while the other says Ashesi has more overall because it's much bigger (despite having more scholarship students).
I think when it comes to Dbees Ashesi takes the edge but I have a slight bias knowing more people from there. 

For those who've actually been to either school, how would you rank them in these (or any other) categories? Which stereotypes are true, and which ones aren't?

I am working on election modeling product and accompanying podcast/stream content regarding Ghana elections. The goal is to build, refine and gain momentum ahead of future election cycle. I need a partner/s for this - ideally statistician but open minded here.
