Boots girl here too! Apprentice dispenser, the first week I had to walk miles to work because the buses were on strike! I quite enjoyed learning how to make suppositories and creams, ointments and medicines. A bit different to nowadays, there was mercury ointment, chloroform & morphine tincture, lead and all sorts of weird & wonderful stuff. Not what I would have chosen though, I had choice of that or hairdressing. What I would've liked was acting or window dressing! The first thing I bought with my wages was a black skinnyrib sweater, I thought I was the bees knees!
