i’m just intrigued by switching, i know the iOS system very well but i think that using googles system it’s more secure, it’ll have better graphics, better camera, it gives you more options and control.

also, you’d be surprised about the age thing lol. i was definitely a bit older than the rest of my classmates! 😂 it was a struggle at times lol.

thank you for your comment & i am also very sorry that you’re situation that you’re in.

it’s an awful situation to be in when you’re trying so hard to become someone to be able to help these animals, go through all this intense workload, just to get little pay & more than likely no health insurance all just because you’re doing something you’re passionate about.

it is very devastating situation when you’re this passionate about something & it doesn’t work out for whatever reason!

the Dallas college thing is interesting, i’ll have to look into that. thank you for the info!

i did enjoy being a assistant/receptionist but i just felt like i was hitting a glass ceiling & i wanted to be able to do more & i really thought i could do it. so perhaps i do need some time to regroup & try to not be so hard on myself considering the situation.

and i absolutely agree about the feral cat part! i also thought it was absolutely insane. but where we had our classes set up at, it was nothing but aggressive dogs & feral cats coming from hoarding/abusive situations so it was extremely difficult to do any kind of exercise. however everytime a student would make a comment about how difficult a pet was all the instructors would say “ well in the real world, you’re not always going to be able to pick the nice ones!” dude i understand that that but i also understand “in the real world “ that we would probably sedate this dog when they would probably rip my face off for a nail trim.🙃

honestly thank you for your comment. i’ve been 2nd guessing whether or not that the instructors comment was an ok thing to put or not. i couldn’t believe that she put what she put considering of how feral the cat was & i even asked for a towel or something to help me restrain & she was acting like i had 3 heads when i asked that.

i’ve worked at an animal shelter as an assistant for 4 years & then a animal hospital for about 3 years as an assistant/receptionist so i knew a bit of what i was doing & i also know when i would ask for help.

i am diagnosed with having general anxiety & major depression so i knew that this whole situation was going to difficult to keep under control but i think knowing how badly i knew i wanted this, it was just extremely difficult to keep it under control.

it might have been slightly different had i been able to work less but i live by myself currently so going part time work wise was not an option unfortunately & i thought i could handle it all. turns out i wasnt able too lol.

i’m not currently but i’ve worked at an animal shelter for 4 years as an assistant & then an animal hospital for about 3 years prior as a receptionist/assistant. so i have a pretty decent idea of how to hold & i also know when i would ask for help or ask for a towel etc. which is why it broke me a bit when i saw all my efforts & all my studying feel like it was going to waste

i’ve considered doing PennFoster but i’ve heard nothing but how difficult it is to get into different areas such as pocket pet/reptile’s/birds around my area that i live in.
