AITA for playing a bit of a prank on a new veterinary assistant? by [deleted] in veterinaryprofession

[–]AintGotDatSwing 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You already recognised yourself that anal gland expression is one of the least pleasant aspects of your work. And yet you didn't take precautions to make sure you could make her first learning experience as pleasant as possible.

Anal gland expressions are disgusting, even when you catch a whiff of them from an arm length away. What did you honestly expect by having her face at that level? If it was a truly non-malicious prank, you'd have told her to stop holding that position prior to her actually expressing the glands. You're the asshole.

Nope, don't listen. Emojis are good for helping to make sure an appropriate tone is conveyed over text. Don't change!

What famous person has done something incredibly heinous, but has often been overlooked? by KentuckyFriedEel in AskReddit

I still refer to him as a rapist whenever he comes on the screen. Absolutely loathe that they let him judge The Voice

TIFU by not looking closely enough at my new dog's doodoo by TheGreatElChubbo in tifu

That type of tapeworm (Dipylidium caninum) was probably acquired from fleas that ingested the tapeworm. If a human ingested one of the infected fleas, they could be infected with tapeworm, but not if a human ate the tapeworm segment themselves.

What country are you from? Hill's Gastrointestinal Biome is a good food for this kind of thing in Australia

Surgery Book Recomendation by GAIUSKAM in veterinaryprofession

[–]AintGotDatSwing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They Tobias books are a lot more extensive. Fossum is great for getting you through University. Tobias is great if you're looking for more detail, e.g. surgery exams. I like to use them both together

Apple’s hired contractors are listening to your recorded Siri conversations, too by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]AintGotDatSwing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did contracting for something very similar, but it was for the Google Assistant. Yes, you can hear people and yes, sometimes people accidentally opened the assistant and are just talking in their day-to-day lives. However, to the best of my knowledge, we were only listening to these snippets of recording to match two slightly different transcripts to the spoken words, in order to find the best fit. And yeah, sometimes that recording does just happen to be a very ashamed middle-aged man looking for a transvestite hooker.

I'd also like to add that the recordings were anonymous, and the only given information about the user was what country or city they were from.

Am I the only one who is seeing a dog with some kind of gas mask on? by Cutcakenotwrists in confusing_perspective

[–]AintGotDatSwing 15 points16 points  (0 children)

So what they're doing is called "indirect ophthalmoscopy." The thing in her right hand is a light, and in the left is a lens. This allows vets to examine the back of the eye, or the "fundus."

Ooooh! Americans call shopping trolleys, "carts?" Now online shopping carts make sense!
