Pharmacy Technicians. Most in this field work in retail locations, such as in grocery store or drug-store pharmacies. They take care of patient records, prescription information and patient medication. They also fill prescriptions under a pharmacist's supervision. While some pharmacy technicians get on-the-job training, most have some kind of formal training and certification through a certificate program. They make a salary approaching $30,000 for those working in retail locations, and closer to $40,000 for those working for the federal government. As the population continues aging, expect that more people will require prescriptions—which will keep this field hot.
