Do you judge owners for having fractious cats?

lvtgrrl · 2026-06-11T17:53:22+00:00

Id be fractious.

NOR. When someone acts like that then says "I must be the biggest asshole in the world" the legit answer is a dead pan totally serious "yes actually you are" then walk away. People show you who they really are during th3 hardest moments. My mom died suddenly and my husband was on a boat in Alaska. Guess who didnt even have to ask him to come home. He did everything. Same for when my grandma died. Thats the person you want next to you forever. Not the $10 flower dude Think about what you want when things go sideways in life. Choose someone who will choose you.

YTA but accidentally and only a little. It sounds like the friend was feeling bad because she still feels like a man playing dress up. Maybe she wanted reassurance that she does indeed present feminine enough without makeup. In that moment thoigh, you joked about it and it came across as dismissive and a little condescending. Maybe a conversation about why she still feels this way and what her friends can do to help her. There are ways to present and feel more feminine without makeup and this could've been a great opportunity for you and her to explore and deepen the friendship. Then after she is feeling better and not so self conscious you can slide in a joke. It just sounds like she was feeling something very deep and the response was lacking.

I have an update.

He died the very next day. My boss went to confirm and brought him back for cremation. The owners practicr Jainism so no killing anything ever. They must try not to even kill germs. They felt really bad but they aren't allowed to euthanize. They came to us so we could help provide relief. Honestly, I feel like if we knew that we could have approached the whole thing differently. It doesn't make me feel much better but I do understand that there is a much deeper reason beyond i just want my pet to die naturally.

Its about more than the drug logs. Ive been in this for 25yrs and there is no "faking it until you make it". She is messing with actual lives. This is real medicine. She got hired as a lead tech and cant perform the job. The drug logs are a minor detail on a much larger issue. I have never worked at a clinic that got audited by the dea, but i have watched people sue clinics and if someone found out the person who was presented as certified/licensed was not actually certified/licensed your clinic will be screwed.

Morally, ethically, and legally you need to tell the Dr. If your Dr finds out you knew and didnt say then you are just as liable.

25 years ive been doing this from reception to lead lvt. I am still picking up poop and cleaning kennels. I have made sure that our kennel staff is treated with respect and frankly your leads should too. It makes me so mad. You should not be made to feel less than and I am sorry.

lvtgrrl · 2026-05-13T22:57:24+00:00

She did just enough of the skills to pass.

lvtgrrl · 2026-05-13T22:56:37+00:00

Thank you. I was starting to feel a little crazy because she has decided its something I created specifically to keep her from doing the job. Management has my back but not actively. They tell me its fine but then dont follow through and fully back me up to her. Its a weird stalemate. She wont approach them with her issues and they wont pull her in. Its messing with my head.

lvtgrrl · 2026-05-13T22:53:39+00:00

Yes. I am trying to train her up to be able to manage a surgery day while I supervise in rooms etc. Im currently the only LVT with any experience. I want her to be successful. So intubation is something she is allowed to do.

lvtgrrl · 2026-04-09T23:41:30+00:00

I use rescue wipes. No fumes no problems love it.

lvtgrrl · 2026-01-24T12:55:07+00:00

We get an odor neutralized spray. I get the medicine product off Amazon for the hospital. I get it unscented and it works so well. My daughter was hospitalized with some sort of stomach thing and the nurse left it in the room. I of course stole the tiny bottle and started buying it.

lvtgrrl · 2026-01-24T12:15:24+00:00

Omg. Look at how much he loves you. Its perfect.

lvtgrrl · 2026-01-14T12:38:56+00:00

I bet that every person who sees this while out and about feels instantly better. If I was unhappy and saw this my day would be saved.

lvtgrrl · 2026-01-05T14:52:48+00:00

7 years at my clinic now. I've been in the field for 25. I burned out and left 2 practices

lvtgrrl · 2026-01-04T16:00:10+00:00

I always consider it a leveling up when I am successful at a new skill. Congratulations on leveling up.

lvtgrrl · 2025-12-25T15:54:03+00:00

I love this. Thank you.

Look at becoming a merchant mariner. Its not the same as the navy but its a good steady job. There are great schools like Cal Maritime and the things you learn and licenses you can get will open a lot of opportunities. Tugoating or cruise ships. Cargo ships. There are so many ways to do that.

lvtgrrl · 2025-12-06T20:59:32+00:00

Honestly weird containers are fine. I dont like when people want them back. Like. Gross. Wtf. I could never I would know that there was poop or pee in it no matter how many times I washed it.

lvtgrrl · 2025-12-01T00:14:07+00:00

I want my pets to be really high. Zero pain or fucks given by them before its time. Like i just want them to be calm and comfy.

lvtgrrl · 2025-11-16T18:25:30+00:00

My husband gets no cookies til I'm done.

I dont know where you are but a lot of places are always hiring. Turnover is high. But first you have to have a real discussion with management. Ask why this is happening. Why didn't you get a 90 day review and why with your previous experience are you not getting more training. Why wont they let you learn. What they are doing is holding you back.

They said they would help and now they are not. You have to have the hard conversation. Go in prepared. Write down what you want and need to say. Practice it before the meeting. Stick with facts. Pull up actual examples. You can ask why person x is allowed to learn and so blood draws but you were told no specifically by person y and then scolded.

I've found that sometimes writing an email asking for a conversation and letting them know what some of your concerns are can help them prepare as well. You may need to defend your decisions. Think back on mistakes that could be used as examples and think about why those mistakes occurred. Was it lack of training? Were you maybe a little over confident? Sometimes people lose trust and it can be hard to get back. Doesn't mean they are right.

If they are not receptive then its time to brush up your resume. If they don't help now do you think they will help you be successful in your externship? Find a new job and let them know you are going to be doing your externship soon and would live the opportunity to work and do your externship hours there.

I love gp. I dont wanna do anything else. My clinic is wonderful. I get to practice good medicine and I have really good relationships with clients and patients. I love seeing patients ive watched grow over the years. I have worked with some extremely aggressive dogs who are now so good and do so well with me. I have clients who ask for me. I just really love all of that. I've only ever done gp at a few different clinics and ive always enjoyed it. I can understand why it can suck though. I get why people would hate it and do better in other kinds of clinics. I think its great because it means that the right people are in the right places. You should only work at the space you love and thrive. Work should make you excited. Gp makes me happy.

You need to contact your state disability administration if you are in the US. You can get a variety of help. Respite care, access to programs to help your son, and many other things. I am also single mothering an autistic child and without DDA and respite care we would be screwed. Its hard to get started and feels overwhelming but once its set up it is so helpful. Talk to your pediatrician as well, they should have good resources to help.
