    I hate it when I have a case that should have been simple, suddenly turn into something really complicated. It's frustrating for the owner and it's frustrating for me and it's never good for the animal. Just bad all the way around.

    30 minutes left for me! Working on scheduling tonight. It always makes me chuckle to think I have $100K invested in higher education and one of my major job functions is to push names around in an Excel Spreadsheet :)

    Yeah sometimes I laugh. My higher education put to great use when I make assignments and drink coffee. LOL And have to throw some chocolate in the picture sometimes.

    Well, at least I get to put my education to work. Although sometimes I feel like I treat an inordinate number of cases of diarrhea and vomiting due to leaving the trash accessible. It doesn't take a degree to recommend not leaving the lid off the trash can anymore. :frowning:

    What! You've got to be kidding. You would think they would let you use the pallet jack for those guys.

    I've got a dog that arrested under anesthesia. The vet got it back and now we are trying to stabilize it better so it doesn't arrest again. I'm just impressed the regular vet got it back. That's not very common in dogs.

    Yep. Here we go again. I had to run home. The wife and daughter were in a big time argument over what daughter was going to get to take with her when she moves out. Daughter is only 14 yrs old!!!!! I had to go home and settle the argument. I took all the stuff away. Don't poke the bear and make him come out of the cave.

    Well I got lucky again and got the midnight to 8AM watch, so now I get a five day weekend instead of four. Still dead tired after working during the day...

    Hi - I'm back again! Got called in to work blood bank bc the scheduled guy called out sick. So I do night shift tonight, then evening shift tomorrow (due to short staffing), then back to regular night shift Saturday. OT will be nice in thepaycheck, but sucks when I'm working it

    @maddogmanor - Dang that's a rapid turn around.

    @Lady - What is it about your shoes? Do we need to get you a different pair?
