<prompt> Human: Normally I would be in the pharmacy but for some reason they took a pharmacy technician to work in the front on the register. Im pretty upset especially since I worked hard to get my raise. What can I do?Assistant: As long as they tell you in advance, I believe the pay change is legal, if extremely insulting.Hows the job market for pharmacy techs in your area? If you can get a new job, I absolutely would.Human: They didnt tell me in advance, I only just found out today. The job market around here for pharmacy techs is lacking. There is a state hospital nearby to apply to but their hiring process takes a lot of time. Been trying to get a job there for the past year. Im definitely going to consider the next town over for a tech job now.  <response>: There was a discussion about this just yesterday, I think maybe the day before. It is definitely illegal to retroactively reduce someones pay, and if thats what theyre trying to do you should take it up with your states Department of Labor, as well as any upper management you have access to.
