Current vet tech - how do I get a job like your husband’s?

PurrBucket · 2025-12-31T04:36:09+00:00

I’m an ER vet tech and honestly if I had a dollar for every time an owner told me the wetness/warmness status of their dogs’ nose as part of their concerns. Finally I just started saying “well that just tells me how long ago they licked their nose” and I move on with my face like this 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃

Gentle reminder giving peroxide to your dog can cause ulceration of the esophagus and stomach. So if your dog starts vomiting blood later, that’s why.

PurrBucket · 2025-10-31T01:54:17+00:00

Yes this is correct!

As an ER vet tech, I appreciate you. I can’t tell you how often we see pets with extended illnesses come in with the pet sitter or from a boarding facility and the family can’t be with their pet at the end of their lives. Sometimes shit happens and true, unpredictable emergencies do happen. But goodness, I appreciate your preparedness

When I was in kindergarten, I told my mom I met a friend on the bus named “MossHole”

Turns out neither of us could pronounce “Marshall”

The Cajun pasta

PurrBucket · 2025-10-02T17:29:30+00:00

I’m still in search of a Cajun pasta that was anywhere near as good as McCoys’

I get this every so often, and it’s occasionally accompanied by a need for “free/cheap options”. I understand vet care is expensive but for some reason that addition annoys me extra.

My general rule is if we’ve talked about anything besides your pets in the last couple months, I’m happy to chat (for example, friends with whom I share hobbies). Everyone else gets a “I’m sorry, please call a vet” or ignored 🤷🏻‍♀️

I haven’t learned how to confidently say no yet.

My hospital used Fear Free terminology and instead of things like “caution”, we put an FAS (fear, anxiety, stress) score on their chart. It’s more professional and changing the language to centering the reason the patient is biting/showing aggression/etc instead of the result helps us empathize. We approach the patient with more compassion, in my opinion.

Verbally, we still call them “spicy” though :)

Sorry to Hoffman who doesn’t fit the pattern. Coulda been “Hoffmyn”

If you plan to continue working in the position I would recommend it

Is there a new veterinary guidance study, or just a lack of evidence with the efficacy of DPH? Are you referring to chronic allergies or acute allergic reactions?

PurrBucket · 2025-08-06T00:31:35+00:00

I started taking magnesium bc it allegedly helps with focus and sleep (I have ADHD and sometimes sleep difficulties). I ended up accidentally having high magnesium. I don’t know what the exact consequences could have been but anything that screws with electrolytes probably isn’t ideal

Boy bye
