Hello,
I graduated last Fall from college and have been working at a chain vet hospital for a few months now. I've done shadowing at small animal hospitals before and done some other internships as well and I've had lots of fun doing it. I'm working through some post bacc classes and getting good grades which is nice, but I've also realized over the course of this year how much I despise being a vet assistant. Is this normal? Is my job supposed to be this... uninteresting? I've read a few threads so far about how shadowing and working in the field will let you know whether being a vet is right for you, and based on my previous experiences I've felt it was right for me. However, now that I'm actually working I absolutely hate it. I won't get into too much because I don't want this post to become too ranty and say too much, but I was just curious if anyone else has felt something similar: just an unnatural hatred for your job as a vet assistant.
Thanks.
Edit: sorry the title should say wondering if vet med is right for me.
