Veterinary School Application Advising Ad
This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
long day at work fixing problems caused by none other than Dr. B. I was helping out at other hospitals in the area so this was the first day I was at my home hospital since Monday. Every appointment was my appointment. Apparently, while I was gone she was busy being an ******* to people. One client told us he never wants to see her again because of her "smart mouth". Others told corporate that they have never been spoken to like that.

She complained about Friday (didn't see a pet that had dropped off at 7:30 am until the owner picked up at 4:30 pm - which turned into a complaint) being too busy when she saw under 30 pets and they were there all night.
 
Glad to hear people are complaining. Will it do anything? Or has this happened before with no repercussions? 🙄

It doesn't usually go anywhere. I haven't heard about people complaining before. That doesn't mean they haven't.

She's been getting overwhelmed recently. Remember, this is a dr that has been practicing 13 years. But 20 pets is apparently too much for her.

I euthanized a cat today and just found out via FB from a receptionist that the owner was pissed with Dr. B because she tried to talk this lady into doing blood work for a 23 year old cat in end stage renal failure. Instead of doing anything with her, she waited 3 days to euthanize with me instead. I'm really upset over this.
 
Jeez Louise. Does the biotch even LIKE being a vet? It's just unacceptable and paints a poor picture of the profession for a lot of clients.

for whatever reason, she has a problem euthanizing pets. She ALWAYS pushes for lab work. Even when the client has readied themselves for the euthanasia.

🙁🙁

This reminds me of the vet I worked with, we (another vet and I) had dealt with these really nice clients and their really sick dog that had to be euthanized during surgery on the table (this dog actually bit me, but I felt bad for it, it was really hurting). The next week, they brought in their really sick, elderly cat... He point blank told me that he did not want to spend 100's of dollars on the cat for it to be euthanized in the end. The cat was in end stage renal failure and I told the doctor flat out what the client had told me, that he would rather euthanize and he still had them doing treatments and hospitalization, they spent almost $700 on the elderly cat before they euthanized... I was pissed... The poor guy did not want that for his cat... 🙁🙁
 
Does anyone ever think, "ARRRRGGG! I just need a place to vent" And then think, "Oh, I am semi-anonymous on SDN, let's vent there." Then you write a big long post in your head while you are you are out walking the dog at 11:30pm at night after coming home from a party with your boyfriend (who is not on this walk with you b/c it's too hot, wahhhhhh). And you write this super long post in your head about how angry you are at your bf, about how he said a party where you had so much fun catching up with your friends, whom you haven't seen in sooooo long (and one who drove over 3 hours) was 'awkward' and you're like what the frank???? And then you get home from said walk, and he's like, "Can you rub my back? Oh, I have nothing in common with your friends. It felt very awkward." Um, this is not my problem. This is your problem. These girls have been my friends since undergrad and I love them and they look out for me. And yes, the conversations have turned into lots and lots of baby talk, b/c that's where everyone is in their lives. All my friends are married and own houses and have babies or babies on the way. But, no, I just signed up for 4 more years of school, and if we're still together at the end, then great. But if not, I will survive. B/c I am independent, and you are not.

//end rant. time for bed silly girl.

I feel that way right now, except about my husband. And for some reason I'm never entirely comfortable discussing our problems with other people, even semi-anonymously. The only person I want to rant to about it is him and he is anti communication sometimes. Sigh.
Hope your day today is better! Make bf give YOU a back rub for all of the aggravation.
 
I am a cranky pants today. I feel like I need a nap.

Same here. I just want to rant to my bf about the stuff that is making me upset, but he won't let me do it. He always says we need to talk about stuff but never gives me the chance.
 
My dryer has decided it won't work for more than a few minutes at a time. So the clothes I put in this morning still aren't dry. 😡
 
I'm studying for tomorrow's exam, and that's fine, except my brain refuses to do any math... and there will be acid-base chemistry questions. Ugh.

Definitely messed up my back.. I don't know how...

But getting up from sitting hurts, bending over hurts, sitting back down hurts and walking hurts and creates shooting pains down both legs...

I am hoping I just slept weird and it will be gone tomorrow morning.. :xf:

You have my utmost sympathy......I spent 3 weeks like that in April...while trying to finish classes, study for finals, and work full time. Getting older sucks big time!!🙁
 
I've had it twice now that I literally couldn't walk because my back was so bad. The first time I missed a week of school and the second time I almost missed my flight back to the US because I wouldn't have been able to sit for 10 hours..

I hope you feel better soon! I have trouble with my back all the time and understand.

Grr, men! (sorry guys on here, just skim over this post)
Sorry for your bf troubles PetPony. I wish I tell you that they get better as communicators as time goes by and they get older/more mature, but that is not the whole truth. I've known my husband for 15 years, been with him 12, and getting an honest, deep topic talk with him is sometimes still really hard. I just think a man (or any person) who is uncomfortable talking about difficult issues or about their emotions will always be that way to some extent. Good luck and know that I'm right there with you girl 🙂

Sorry to hear that. If you are comfortable meeting up with someone from SDN, I'll be in Blacksburg in less than 30 days. I'd be more than happy to get some drinks with you to help you forget all about it, or listen to you b*tch about your ex, whatever you prefer.

We're both trying hard to work on our problems, but it's really difficult right now. He's planning on going back to Mexico in about three weeks and I have no idea when I get to see him again. Maybe it's even an if. 🙁

This is probably true. It's the opposite in my relationship - I'm the one with the emotional stonewall and I know it's super frustrating to the dude.
 
Got home from my movie and the roadway on the other side of my building was blocked off by the police. Had to turn around and drive in the back way. Whatever is going on is happening in my building, right on the other side of the wall. Gotta love living in the ghetto.....as a single female.....
 
I just realized I leave exactly two weeks from right now. I'm not ready to leave my great life yet 🙁. This is gonna be one hell of an adventure! 😕
 
Ready for my test... started my study guide for the other one... but now I can't concentrate bc I'm pissed.

So the BF got offered a really great job. They told him he would start June 25th so he gave his other job notice. He has been jobless for 3 weeks now. They have to send him on a week long training to San Antonio which was SUPPOSED to be the week of June 25th... it's now July 9th, and again this week, he won't be going. Why does this make me mad?

I leave 2 weeks from today, and work/study this whole week, my last day is Friday. This means that all next week we were going to hang out for the last time in oh, 4 YEARS 😡 . We had a camping trip planned, white water rafting, a baseball game, etc.
Now it looks like that is the week he will be in San Antonio. I have to study like mad this whole week, and the week I finally have off, he won't be here, and I leave the day after he gets back. I'm beyond irritated right now and it is really making me sadder than sad. Not to mention I could really use his help packing. 😡

I am so irritated with him on top of it, because he just says "what do you want me to do about it?"
Oh I don't know... act like you give a CRAP about it! CALL someone and figure out what the hell is going on! They keep telling him they are waiting on his medical paperwork.... so call the damn medical place and see what the hell is going on! UGH I'm so effing irritated, and pissed, and really effing sad. He could at least have some damn urgency about the situation instead of just saying "it sucks" all the time.
I suppose it isn't fair to assume he will approach the situation the same way that *I* would, but I just feel like it shows a lack of giving a ****e on his part!
We have been planning next week together for months and now everything is ruined.
:cry:
I feel like I don't even get to say goodbye properly 🙁.
 
My job description changed: It used to be "DNA extractions with a little bit of fieldwork" to "You and 4 other students are going to work in the nursery with 4000 trees every single day it isn't a downpour, hoeing, pruning, staking and tying." I am NOT looking forward to this week. I am sore. I am cranky. I really didn't anticipate being bent over my entire summer.
 
Haha, you all have dirty minds. :laugh:
Then again, the rootstock remind me of erect penises.
Had to say that. Sorry.

You're freaking out???? I don't even know where the hell I'm living yet. Commence freaking out. Also, I haven't bought/packed like anything. Well, I do have the Guide to the Dissection of the Dog but that's about it. Still have to sign my MPN for my GradPLUS loan too. And order my PennCard. And enroll in the insurance. And fill out the rabies form. Also haven't bought a new computer yet because I can't decide if I want to go tablet or Mac and whether.:boom:

After I posted this I ranted to him about it too :laugh:, and he is definitely upset about it too. At first he was mad that I was upset with him for something that was out of his control, and then he took control and called. 👍

I know right? I 😍 my job, love my house, love picked raspberries out of my back yard, love trout fishing and bow hunting in my back yard, love my BF and his family and my pups love it here and its just so sad how much sacrifices suck sometimes. But we can do it, Sunnex! As sad as it is, it is also so excited that we have this opportunity so we just have to make the best of it and look at it as part of our journey in life. You're gonna be awesome! You will make friends, I have no doubt!
I haven't packed a thing, bought a thing, or prepared mentally for a thing either :laugh:.
 
aaaaaaand there's the news we were dreading. He leaves Monday and gets back Friday the 20th. Life just is't fair sometimes.

no such luck 🙁 nothing on there says anything about my loans.....i wonder if it takes longer for OOS students vs. IS students?

my bill doesn't reflect my $10,000 scholarship either so i'm a bit worried right now. i was gonna wait another day to see if i get anything in the mail and then call them tomorrow.

as far as i'm aware the only reason the grad plus loan amt would be decreased is if i got those loans....initially i was approved for more.

Hmm. Yeah, that's weird. It should be in the financial aid section under application status I think...I'd probably call.
 
If you are indecisive about what you want for lunch, do not make everyone else wait behind you while you decide. So frustrating.

:laugh: I'm usually that person you're waiting behind. Although I have NEVER made someone else wait. I always let people go ahead of me until I'm sure about what I want.
My boyfriend prints up restaurant menus before we go out and makes me pick what I'm eating before we get there... otherwise it can take a considerable amount of time. I'm so annoying :smack:
