Pm incoming I just bought my partner Vincent Price's cookbooksPM me and we'll get you added in. 😀
I’m just starting a collection of people to bug in May to add me to different thingsFor those asking, as a heads up the group is for veterinarians only so I think vet students may have to wait until they're graduated
I’ll try to rememberI’m just starting a collection of people to bug in May to add me to different things
Yeah, if you or anybody else bug me in May I can also add you to quite a few groups as I'm in a zillion of them for some reason. Including, if anyone is interested, separate pig and poultry groups lol. I think the only big one I'm not on are the horse groups and that's just because I try to keep those away as patientsI’m just starting a collection of people to bug in May to add me to different things

I will def be bugging you for that one 😂😂😂Oh, and I know this applies to you but also if it does for anyone else, I'm in a Veterinarians with Chronic Disease support group as well if anyone is interested down the road

What is that process like? That's what I'm planning for my futureI used to think vet school personal statements were hard until I applied for a residency.
Please give me a job. You have openings and need doctors. I am doctor. I will work many hours for little money. Hire me pls.
It's tedious and full of suckageWhat is that process like? That's what I'm planning for my future
You write a letter of intent about how you want to be the best specialist in the world because the specialty is the best and you’re the best at it. Send them a CV too. Get people with clout who hopefully like you to fill out reference sheet things on the website. You read lots of listings trying to read between the lines to see which will suck the least. You pick which ones you’d be willing to tolerate for 1 or 3 years and your app is sent to them. Then you come up with some way to objectively rank all the ones you’re willing to go to from “one I want most” to least. Meanwhile, the clinic has a giant stack of apps, they review and rank people they’re willing to accept in order of “person I want most” to least. Then there’s some magic interwebs happenings that are decently well explained in some medical school based match process videos. On the day of reckoning you log into a website on a certain date and they tell you if someone you wanted on your list wanted you back. If you do match, Where it says is where you have to go. And if you don’t want to go there anymore then you’re banned from this process for like 3 years minimum. If you didn’t match with a clinic it’s then a crazy free for all where people call clinics that didn’t fill their spots they’re now desperate enough to consider and clinics call people they might have originally passed on to try to fill spots.What is that process like?

If your interviews are within the next 2 weeks and are in person, I would contact the places you are interviewing with and see if you are able to do a zoom interview. I’m sure they would rather set up a time to do a zoom interview than have you miss it because you had to quarantine or bring COVID there unknowingly. If they’re already virtual, there is still no harm in contacting the schools and asking if there is a chance to push your interviews back and let them know that a family member you live with (I assume? Since you’re concerned about getting it too?) has COVID and you are unsure if you will get it so that you can be in good health when your interview comes around if you do get COVID and need time to recover before interviewing.my dad just tested positive for Covid and my mom prob has it. I’m not feeling anything right now but I have 2 interviews coming up ugh. And I’m at work right now. Covid is fricking insane.

Yes they’re both virtual, so that’s a plus. And yeah that’s my concern. My first interview is on Friday so I think I’ll be fine (?) I just don’t know. My dad has probably had Covid for a few days now he just didn’t know cuz there were no tests available. I might contact the school and see if I can push it, but I don’t want to be seen as difficult. And the other interview is more mid January being around the 20th so I think I’ll be good for that one. Thank you for your response, we’ve all been so careful with my mom in education and my dad in healthcare so makes sense we got it now with the more contagious variant. Just sucks, I’m already super stressed😭If your interviews are within the next 2 weeks and are in person, I would contact the places you are interviewing with and see if you are able to do a zoom interview.

I forgot 100% of my research experience and left that entire section blank... Whoopsies ¯\_(ツ)_/¯Rant here: I (first app cycle) was looking through my vmcas app just to see what admissions was seeing and I realized I didn't add 90% of my volunteer experience (clubs, extracurriculars, etc.) like omfg I really sent them a dry *ss app Guess I'll do better next app cycle (with all of those essays omg let's not think about it yet too early too early). But for real, this may be a mad question and everyone probably did better than me but has anyone else had forgotten experiences and felt like their app was less than what they wanted it to be? as much as 90% of a certain category of experiences??? lol this NEVER happens to me I triple check everything... maybe I got sidetracked with the million essays and the fact it said "volunteer" rather than "extracurricular"
Rant over
I’m right there with you! I forgot to log my Sigma Alpha (profession agriculture sorority) leadership experience, my pet sitting business, and my volunteer work with our state wildlife organization. I felt like an idiot BIG TIME. 🤦🏼♀️Rant here: I (first app cycle) was looking through my vmcas app just to see what admissions was seeing and I realized I didn't add 90% of my volunteer experience (clubs, extracurriculars, etc.) like omfg I really sent them a dry *ss app Guess I'll do better next app cycle (with all of those essays omg let's not think about it yet too early too early).

We’re in this together lol. Unfortunate for both of us but glad there is someone else out there (who also applied to Cornell?) that didn’t fully log hours hahaI’m right there with you!

RANT CANCELLED -- the cashier gave me the gelato for freeeee because it's her favorite flavor and I guess they can do that??I made the terrible mistake of going to Whole Foods at 5:15pm the day before a major snowstorm ❄️🌨️
My gelato is melting before my eyes 😭😭
When I got back from my parents’, the local store was absolutely empty of food. I was very confused. And the store itself was super overrun with people. So, did they buy all the food at that time? Or….I made the terrible mistake of going to Whole Foods at 5:15pm the day before a major snowstorm ❄️🌨️

We also had snow here yesterday so I was pleasantly surprised there wasn’t a huge wait for grocery pick up time slots. Although apparently my husband (the account holder) was getting a bunch of texts about substitutions so I guess we’ll see what they come up with…
Haha, my wife asked for dinner rolls (like crusty baguette style) and they subbed whole wheat hamburger buns lolLast week I had someone helpfully substitute red beets for my requested red onions.
But when they didn't have the exact kind of apple I wanted they just said sorry, not available, no substitution. I was very ???

Ha! I don’t feel so bad about my mixed-berry-not-strawberry yogurt substitution and the different scented body wash Last time I tried this (a year ago) I got green beans instead of brussel sprouts but I figured at least the thought was there…Haha, my wife asked for dinner rolls (like crusty baguette style) and they subbed whole wheat hamburger buns lol
So I got COVID again and had to trade my on-call weekend with my boss, giving her three in a row. Before that, I had asked if I could have off the weekends of the 22/23 (my birthday is that Monday) and the 29/30 (working at my SAGP job). I texted my boss today that I was planning to take the on-call for 22/23 in addition to this coming weekend but said I still can't do the 29/30. She texted me back to let her know if I will be back Wednesday from COVID and that she has me on the next three in a row.
I acknowledge it sucks that she had to do three in a row. However, it's not my fault I got COVID and was told I couldn't do the on-call for the weekend (which wouldn't necessarily require me to go in). I feel like I'm being punished and that my clearly-stated-continued-unavailability for the third weekend was just ignored, which is straight rude. I have such a tough time with her in general - she is very mercurial and while I have learned a ton from her, her unpredictability is really hard for me to manage. It's clear to me that she doesn't trust my judgement and she treats me more like a baby vet than someone who has been doing medicine and surgery for almost 7 years now. I'm not the only one she treats like this, but I'm the only other vet and it's tough to feel like we're both doctors but that she's somehow better than me.
I'm not going to text her back about the weekend; it'll be better to have the conversation in person I hope. I'll offer to do three in a row after that weekend, not a problem (despite it being my kids' birthday) but I'm just frustrated.
Appreciate the sentiment, but I'm not in SAGP anymore so it's not that easy unfortunately. I absolutely love my job and almost everyone there, and I'm not willing to leave at this point.It is an employees world, go find a job that trusts you and doesn't have on call. On call should be rather obsolete at this point.

Which I'm pretty sure is not TRH's field.
What, do you have a real life or something?I don't keep dibs on where everyone on SDN works now.
Something. I also have a killer sinus headache post sinus surgery and I'm stuck at a car dealership feeling like I've been sucker punched in the face but can't take pain meds until I get home. I just needed my tires filled with air and one checked to be sure no leak it has been over an hour.What, do you have a real life or something?
All I can think of when I hear sinus surgery is the time in vet school I watched an equine trephination surgery. Talk about blood! I hope you get home to your pain meds soonSomething.
