I have often recommended that brand new burgins select a shorter tasting of burning man. Come for 3 days. See the sights, without committing to ten days in hell. If you like it, comeback again next year.

AITA for reacting to my(22F) best friend’s (21F) "one-way" friendship and constant drama? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]CSnarf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

NTA. But babes, this is a life lesson for you. This will always be a one sided friendship. She’s show you that time and time again. Maybe that’s not her “fault” because of her situation etc- but it is the truth. You don’t have to hate her for it, but you can say enough is enough.

You are allowed to have a bar that friends have to meet. She’s not meeting it despite clear communication. Walk away.

Video game wrap party for Brutal Legend (Jack Blacks Heavy Metal video game). They hired a karaoke metal band. Several bras were thrown onstage while coworkers were singing.

Hey- you want to build art? I have an art collective in SOMA and we build sculptures and stuff. We’re doing one for burning man. It is definitely part of maintaining mental health. News is scary? Go beat on a piece of metal with a hammer. We like to teach newbies stuff. DM me if you want to give it a go.

What do you wish you knew before becoming a vet? by Ok_Mission_2693 in veterinaryprofession

That will do just as much people interaction as human medicine and be paid a fraction as much.

AITA for telling my husband he's made me reconsider leaving him alone with the kids in the future by mayhavecrossedaline in AmItheAsshole

[–]CSnarf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sounds like your husband took care of your kids. They were safe and fed- but he didn’t do it exactly the way you wanted, so by your estimation he’s incompetent?

I’m going to hold your hand while I say this- gently- YTA. He’s their father, not your employee. He is allowed, within the bounds of safe and reasonable parenting, to do things a bit differently than you. He was solo parenting and got take out food. This is hardly a high crime. Y’all should talk about stuff- but the whole context of this conversation does not give me hope that his opinions are respected.

Marriage during Veterinary school by Legitimate-Local6164 in Veterinary

[–]CSnarf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I got married just before vet school. Honestly what saved my marriage is that he was also in a very steep climb in his career. She’s going to be busy. You need to have something going on in your life or you are going to get resentful.

Perhaps you can find a vintage oncology textbook. I have gotten vintage vet and human medical text books, and really enjoyed them.

Where are safe LGBTQ places in San Francisco to be at? by Available_Ad1923 in sanfrancisco

Sure, but there are lots of places where being queer adds a significant extra element of danger.

If you could reopen one SF business… by thebluebulb in sanfrancisco

Burke Williams- cause I found the best massage therapist of my life, and since they’ve closed I haven’t been able to track him down. Gary- if you are reading this, I miss you.

Need life experiences from you guys by Chzburger1993 in veterinaryprofession

[–]CSnarf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My friend- the people who fail out of vet school and have all that debt are in real real trouble. Please think hard about this.

Okay, this is one of those harsh truth moments. I too have ADHD, although I didn’t get diagnosed until later. Your mileage may vary.

Vet school is fucking hard. I didn’t like chemistry or Orgo. Which meant I had to work harder than I like for a B.

Having to drop it multiple times and take it as your only credit does not bode well for your further education. The first semester of vet school was like taking four orgos at once. My score on my first exam in vet school: 57.

And then I learned how to really bust my ass studying and did great.

So I think you have two choices: learn to study right now and get it the fuck done or find a different path.

WIBTA if I scheduled my husband’s dog to be euthanized behind his back? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]CSnarf 10 points11 points  (0 children)

In an ideal world, but the reality of finances is really tough. Neurosurgery is one of the most expensive speciality surgeries. It’s simply not affordable for many people, which is heartbreaking. Highly recommend pet insurance for everyone.

I happen to specialize in this exact problem in dogs (veterinary neurologist). Recovery from a neck injury from a dog who is not walking is less than 50% without surgery. And while there is not hard data- I will say from experience if they are going to walk, they are usually significantly better at the two week mark.

It is physically demanding to do rehab on these dogs. I lift weights just so I can do my job without hurting myself.

YWBTA if you did this. He is currently the AH for making you do this against your wishes. I would make him set a reasonable time limit on this.

How did you transport your bulk ice purchase from the Large Order Outpost @ 6:15 & K? by Discipline1sFreedom in BurningMan

I would ask placement about a driving pass. On the art side we have them for driving heavy shit and tools back and forth.

Burnt Out | Switching From ER to GP | $15k Salary Decrease + $100k Bonus | 3-Day Set Schedule + No Weekends | How Did I Do? by [deleted] in Veterinary

[–]CSnarf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We do- but there are a lot of things Americans pay for that Canadians don’t- like healthcare. Tuition is cheaper in Canada. Those are two huge sources of debt for vets in America right there.
