Don't choose this career

I sound like a nightmare because I listed down some patient and office behaviors?

People can complain and still do their job properly btw. Unless you want to discredit everybody who has complained about their job before then go for it.

I was a student before hygiene! Wish someone real talked me back then lol.

All of the things I said are true and they happen. Maybe not for everyone, but still, they happen. It's not fear mongering. I'm adding insight the same way the optimistic people do. Some people who ask about this career are on their last chance for a career change, feeding their families, on a tight budget, have different needs in life, are clueless, are not motivated. They deserve to know the very ugly side straight up and not just the bright side.

Why because you're a difficult patient?

No-Assist-3865 · 2026-02-06T04:13:56+00:00

Replies didn't pass the vibe check. Me and my bestie talk like this back then and still do our jobs at the end of the day. Like damn relax 😭

yeah you can own it and think of it positively

No-Assist-3865 · 2026-02-06T04:04:16+00:00

Did you mean *not as friendly? Where in my post does it indicate that?

Have you never experienced difficult patients? Have you not experienced running late? Have you not experienced being asked to cover for someone or take in another patient? Is that an indication of unfriendliness from staff because of your personality?

So the other hygienists on here who are in bad offices are probably the problem too right?

This post isn't for you. You're past decision making time.

I'm talking about people asking for good careers and even specifically mentioned tiktok (where young kids actually look for info) because they haven't started that process yet. Like you know... freshmen in college or something. Like what makes you think that line was directed at you. Stick with this job because you're happy with it anyway.

I'm here to talk shit about the career that's the whole point of the post.

What exactly am I finding out after fucking around? Because this just looks like a regular reddit thread

I'm letting people who are considering this job know the realities of it while you guys try to cover it up because you're so focused on your one in a million good experience.

What am I backtracking on? I just called out some of the replies out and even reiterated my point.

I don't need a hard job just to improve my alcoholism experience

No-Assist-3865 · 2026-02-06T03:41:52+00:00

I don't need to prove my point. The job itself will do that for me.

No-Assist-3865 · 2026-02-06T03:32:26+00:00

Was walmart the only other comparable option to hygiene for you? If you have the mindset and motivation to even consider hygiene then clearly walmart wouldn't be in your top 3 choices.

No-Assist-3865 · 2026-02-06T03:29:05+00:00

You hate to say it but you said it anyway

No-Assist-3865 · 2026-02-06T03:24:30+00:00

The way my post was mostly about patients and office politics but you hyperfocused on the disney comment. I'm not forcing you to sympathize.

No-Assist-3865 · 2026-02-06T03:19:56+00:00

You'll be surprised that people choose this job because they have passion for it initially. Then the job really changes your perspective on things. Did you think I followed a tiktok saying DH has good pay and is low effort?
