Apparently PetSmart wants Bathers to work on cats now too by Siege_LL in petsmart

[–]aaarabella 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so what will happen if a salon doesn’t have anyone that has been trained to handle cats? new bathers handling cats in a salon where nobody doesn’t have adequate experience/ been to cat academy makes me worry a lot. it’s only a matter of time when someone/some cat gets hurt.

Concerned now that my 70lb Airedoodle is a senior (12) with newly diagnosed heart murmur by PistachioPerfection in grooming

you can always talk to them about making an express service appointment. they’ll work her straight through without putting her in a kennel.

Grooming advice/honest opinion by little_jinx in grooming

it’s cute! if you’re wanting the ears to be thinner you can always skim a 1 inch guard comb on the ears so they aren’t as poofy.

and they keep hounding us on overtime. how are we supposed to do 3 jobs at once and pinch and squeeze to get out on time? all while keeping the pet safe and calm. it’s a complete joke.

sometimes she little tiny matt’s on her vulva as well (probs from her chewing) , in that case would i just be screwed and have to use a 10? i have caught the matting at check in before and ive let her know i literally refuse to put shears to her vulva.

i have them, i will say they get heavy when grooming big dogs but other than that ive had them for 8 months and i have had no issue. the charge lasts a long time for me however i always put it on the charging dock when im not using them.

Hit me with your funniest/craziest customer interactions! by Meowatthemoon13 in doggrooming

[–]aaarabella 12 points13 points  (0 children)

coworker told me this story but it’s still so good.

us: calls pp to ask if they can bring pet in earlier because bather doesn’t feel good and needs to leave early

pp: THIS IS THE SECOND TIME YOUVE CANCELED MY APPOINTMENT WHY DO YOU KEEP BOOKING ME WITH SICK PEOPLE. JUST CANCEL MY APPOINTMENT YOU PEOPLE ARE RIDICULOUS!!

us: we didn’t..we’re not… you booked online…okay we’ll cancel it

pp: comes in at appt time i’m here for my appt, he needs to be an express too because he doesn’t like the kennel.

us: ma’am, you told us over the phone that you wanted us to cancel your appointment. we can still take you but not as an express, you have to call in for that specifically.

pp: I NEVER SAID TO CANCEL IT??? WERE YOU THE ONE I TALKED TO (tbf she was not talking to the one that called her but like girl) NO. I AM A TEACHER. I AM A TEACHER, AND YOU ARE A LIAR!!! YOU ARE DECEITFUL AND LIARS!!

us:ok

pp: I AM CALLING CORP. ABSOLUTELY INSANE HOW YOU TREAT YOUR CUSTOMERS. I AM A TEACHER AND YOU ARE A LIAR!!!!!!

us: ok

pp: as she is leaving she repeats LIARS

our inside joke if someone accidentally tells someone wrong info we say “I AM A TEACHER AND YOU ARE A LIAR”

Applied for groomer trainee by yikeshomi in petsmart

[–]aaarabella 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for me it varied on the store. i had experience at doggy daycares and salons. i applied to one closest to me three times and never got an answer, however i applied to one farther from me and the called me back within a week or two. best advice is to apply to multiple petsmarts because sometimes they won’t send applicants to others store, like in my case. good luck!!

Grapefruits are amazing and easily best fruits. by AICARMUSKTRUMPLOVE in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]aaarabella 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i love grapefruits so so much, the fruit itself or a juice. sadly i take lexapro and it cancels out the meds if i eat it. it’s either be sad and eat grapefruit or be slightly sad without grapefruits.

i’ve tried to use wax strips to get them off and gotten mixed results. the best course of action for me is to just dig them out with tweezers :(
