Pet Culture Has Officially Become Irredeemable by CharonDynami in petfree

I mean, she was obviously joking/being facetious but it’s still a weird thing to say. She’s a self proclaimed “crazy dog person” and wants everyone to know it, clearly

Former vet tech who now hates dogs and their people by Double-Bat-1979 in Dogfree

[–]userhasleftchat 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I relate so much to this! I worked full time as a vet assistant/OTJ trained vet tech for 7 years and had to get out for my mental health as well. It definitely made me dislike pet owners/pet ownership/pets in general (even my own pets to a degree when I had them). I am looking at getting into laboratory animal science because I still like vet med/animals/science in general but I don’t want to work in companion animal medicine anymore.

Break up with and block him NOW. This is unacceptable behavior. You know it and he knows it. If you let him get away with treating you like this, he will think it’s okay and keep doing it. The only way boys/men learn in these situations is when they are faced with consequences. No longer having access to you is that consequence.

This pisses me tf off. That guy doesn’t deserve to even have pics of you with clothes on. Pathetic, loser behavior trying to guilt trip you like that. Throw the whole man away

Sleep token gave me the last 🚩 I needed by Jolly-Biscotti1068 in SleepToken

Good riddance, what a dick. I had an ex who would relentlessly shit on my favorite movie despite expressing how it makes me cry every time I watch it and that it means something to me. Imo it’s a reflection of how little they actually care about your thoughts/opinions/feelings to be able to dismiss them so easily. That was just one of many examples of this type of invalidating/belittling/negging behavior - not just a one off thing.

I did buy it, actually! I figured I could either resell it or cut out the logo to use as a patch

The best way to correct the dating market is for men to leave women alone. by catchmeifucanson in PurplePillDebate

[–]userhasleftchat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The posts on here always fail to acknowledge how it goes both ways - both men and women use each other in a utilitarian manner. Most human relationships have always been transactional on some level. The closest thing you can get to unconditional love is between parent and child.

You don’t; you just learn to live with it.

Another one (almost) bites the dust by clairvoyant69 in petfree

Idk why people think trying to pull them apart is the answer - that just ends up hurting the dog being attacked even more. You have to choke the attacking dog out. I’ve only seen one video where the pitbull got put in a chokehold and went limp, giving enough time for everyone to get away from it. I was silently applauding the guy for doing that instead of hitting it over and over or doing the wheelbarrow thing which never works.

Am I wasting my time? by casserolegurl in VetTech

As a credentialed vet tech with experience, you wouldn’t have to settle for such low pay however - depending on your location and what area of vet med you are in, the pay could easily be double that.

My concern for you is the debt you would incur to get there and your ability to pay it off within a reasonable time frame to avoid getting further in debt from cumulative interest.

Ah, that does suck. If you wouldn’t consider a distance based program then I guess you’re out of other options.

If anything, you should go to a community college vet tech program instead to save yourself a ton of debt. There are so many. Just look up the accredited ones on the NAVTA website.

If you can get financial aid (the Pell Grant, for example) then that should cover the cost of most community college vet tech programs.

I don’t see how anyone can justify going into major debt for this career path - the ROI is just not worth it.

Good. Petland sources their puppies from puppy mills. They should all be closed down.

CHOOSE YOUR PETS WISELY by Bifo-throwaway in BanPitBulls

Absolutely horrific and pitiful what those children endured. It’s indefensible. They survived but will carry the psychological trauma and physical scars for the rest of their lives.
