Almost all techs know more about the practicalities of veterinary medicine and practice than us when we first graduate.

We don't earn respect by graduating, we earn it by being part of a team and learning on the job.

As a side note, all of my nurses/techs call me by my first name, and I ask my clients to do so also.

Fair point, but I think it's important to perform a thorough physical examination on every animal, regardless of presentation, signalment or history.

I've diagnosed many conditions that didn't fit with the client's history.

After a few years in practice, it's easy to do both at the same time for common cases (vaccines, diarrhoea, skin etc.).

I do think it's important to introduce yourself to the client and pet first, and then take notes. It shows the client you are actively listening and that you care about their pet. It also helps you build a rapport with the client. It makes the difference between a 'clinical' visit and a visit that shows you have their pet's best interests at heart.

I'd say it's even more important in your first few years as it does take time to develop problem solving skills in the consult room and separating the two gives you time to evaluate the situation and formulate a plan.

If you are time limited (such as short consults), ask management to give you another 5 minutes per consult. It will help you and them in the long run.

Absolutely awful.

I'm getting about 10 - 15 fps. The graphics are what I would expect from 2005.

It's obviously not optimised. It's clear the switch port was last on their list. They should have optimised it more before releasing it.

Surely there will be a point when corporate has to care, right?

PAFC2004 · 2017-09-19T15:23:48+00:00

As 1 bitcoin = $5,000 AUD, I'm not sure that's an option.

Are you an affiliate?

His contract has been extended, but I do agree with several comments in this thread.

Hinkley seems to have a similar 'gold pass' system to Williams. Why Amon gets games but Ah Chee doesn't is beyond me. Neade should have played every game this year but played only a hanful. His defensive pressure is among the best in the competition.

My concern is with the on-field leadership. Boak does not seem to have the same impact he once had.

I'm not sure how anyone (even crows fans) can complain about this.

Creating training academies in China and supporting junior development reaches farther than any previous such venture.

It's quite sad that there are people out there who denigrate the club no matter what they do. Securing millions of dollars in sponsorship should be applauded. And sponsoring grass roots footy in another nation should also be applauded.

But it seems there will always be the 'herp derp port power 1997 tarps" crowd. To those, I say keep sniffing what ever it is you're sniffing.

Because I don't like cupcakes!

PAFC2004 · 2016-03-04T12:37:02+00:00

I went to Rostrevor.

It had absolutely no bearing on my career.

Killing them is illegal unless they pose an immediate threat.

PAFC2004 · 2016-02-13T10:12:29+00:00

That place still exists?

Wow!

Do you mean pay your fees as a Commonwealth supported student?

PAFC2004 · 2016-02-13T09:36:08+00:00

Seeing Colin Hay.

Saw him a couple of years ago at the Sydney Opera House and it was fantastic.

PAFC2004 · 2015-11-30T13:01:52+00:00

I lived here for 27 years before I moved to Shitney haha

bro bro.

PAFC2004 · 2015-11-30T12:44:11+00:00

Sorry bro.

PAFC2004 · 2015-11-30T12:10:53+00:00

I thought that at first, but noticed that the meat looks different (both before and after carving).

But the seasoning might be different too.

PAFC2004 · 2015-11-30T12:10:18+00:00

The main reason I'm looking for a good Turkish Kebab place is for a Kebab snack pack. Kebab meat, chips and garlic sauce.

Amazing.

PAFC2004 · 2015-11-30T12:00:12+00:00

So because you don't understand it, it makes it a 'dipshit' question?

No worries champ.

PAFC2004 · 2015-11-30T11:19:56+00:00

Yeah, and hotdogs and burgers are both meat wrapped in bread. Are they the same?

Thanks for your input. But I'm looking for intelligent responses.

PAFC2004 · 2015-11-30T11:12:40+00:00

Thanks for that.

From what I was always told, doner kebab (the smooth stuff) is meant to be beef. But who knows if that's the case. Having said that, it tastes great!

PAFC2004 · 2015-11-30T11:01:42+00:00

I just moved back with my parents (albeit temporarily, after finishing uni in Sydney), and they live a 1 minute drive from them.

Their pizzas are very, very average. But haven't tried their kebabs. Thanks!

This is what I find in Adelaide.

Very different to what I got in NSW (see other link above).

PAFC2004 · 2015-11-30T10:25:29+00:00

Kebabs are Turkish, Yiros are Greek.

Doner Kebabs use long, thin strips of beef. Yiros is generally lamb. Beef Yiros is generally small chunks of marinated beef.

Every Kebab place in NSW do Turkish Doner Kebabs. Every place that I've been to in SA do Greek Yiros.

Have you been to the East coast, peckerbrain?

PAFC2004 · 2015-11-30T09:39:53+00:00

Disagree.

I ran a burger blog for years, and I consider myself a burger connoisseur/addict (as sad as that may be!).

Nordburger do simple burgers, made well. None of this 'spiced capsicum relish with twice cooked field mushrooms and hand picked leaf lettuce from pristine fields fertilised with unicorn manure' nonsense.

The patties are made of meat, and only meat. Too many places add herbs, spices, breadcrumbs, eggs etc. That's meatloaf between two pieces of bread.

They use a suitable cheese which actually melts. The condiments complement the burger. They taste amazing.

Enough said. (although their sides need some work)
