[luckies4me]

Today I got a call from the head doctor of the Santa Clara Veterinary Clinic! :D I was on the phone at the time so he left a message. I called back and they said he won't be there til Monday so hopefully he will call again. I want to go back to work at a vets because I love that job, it's fit for me! So please pray he calls on Monday and that I can get set up for an interview! :)

Well he called back today and I have an interview on Saturday at 8:30 in the morning!!! :D


This guy is so cool lol. He has twin boys who are 13 months old so we are going to get our kiddos together. Even if I don't get the job Dylan will make new baby friends lol. :p

He also has a 5 year old and a 17 year old so they are a busy family. I get a tour of the clinic on Saturday and I will be (if I get the job) doing receptionist/vet tech work. It's a tiny clinic. It used to be a house so it's fairly small. But he said they might be moving into a larger place in about 6 months. :)


I am so excited and I REALLY hope I get this job!!!:D

[AmberLee]

Fingers and paws crossed here for you that it will work out as you wish!

[slick]

How exciting for you :D If I could do things over again I would work in a vet's office as well. Good luck! Let us know how it goes.

Good luck on your job interview!!!!! You have experience with animals thats for sure!

I just don't know how you handle all the things in your life - a baby and pets and a new dog even! I could never do it anymore thats for sure. I thought you were going to school this month? Got a baby sitter lined up for Dylan or is Dan home?:)

My baby is a very good child lol, my mother says I got lucky lol. I will have to cut down on breeding once I have this job, which would be part time. My doggie....um Dan kinda stole her from me lol! He keeps taking her to work with him. :rolleyes: I know it's good and everythig but she's my doggie too! LOL Yep I go to school, but I am taking telecourses and a class on Saturday....which I didn't get to sign up for but it's open all the time anyway.....just a lame basic class. ;)


Dylan will go to his grandmas house on the weekdays and Dan will sit on Saturday. I am trying to get Saturdays so that we won't have to pay for daycare on a day I am working. But I will only be working three days a week if I get the job...I mean weekdays, and then hopefully Saturday! :D They are only open half day on Saturday so I will still get my weekends to spend time with family, cage cleaning etc. It's really not as tough as it seems, I can handle a lot at once. I know what my limit is, and right now I would say it's at it's maximum capacity hehe. :p

Good luck with the interview!

[Cookiebaker]

Good Luck with the Interview! Sounds like you have a very busy schedule!!

[luckies4me]

I got the job!!!! :D :D :D


I'm so excited! I start on Monday and will be there ALL day! :eek: From 7 to around 5 or so. So I will be working on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays....hopefully. He still needs to decide which days he really needs the help on. He says it's really busy in the mornings so I will start work pretty early. He also said I can work Saturdays once I get the hang of everything and how the place runs etc. But the good thing is that they rotate Saturdays and they are only open from 9-12 on those days, so I will get off early and sometimes get a full weekend! It's the PERFECT job and I knew I waited for a reason.


The place is kinda small. They actually bought the other place already and next Friday will be moving all the paperwork etc. over to the new building and then on Monday I will need to go to the new building lol. I met the shop cat who was a little torti girl. She's a 16 year old kitty and oh so cute! All the staff are very nice as well. They do wildlife rehab and a lot of exotics! So I just might have a new ratty vet. :D They see servals and everything....man I am gonna love this job! heeeeeeeeeeeee hehe


Their surgery area is small but they do have something cool, a hydrolic dog table! That is great since I have a bad back I don't have to lift 60 pound doggies. ;) :p They have a VERY old metal weight table for dogs and the thing is so cool looking. It's like an antique! I want it lol. It's made out of copper or something like that...very old.


There was a cute red eared slider turtle there who had an abscess in her ear.:eek: She also needed some vitamin E treatment for her eyes as they were a little puffy. The lady who brought the turtle in wanted to keep it, but it is a wild turtle and they are now illegal here in captivity unless you bought them years ago from a petshop.


But anyways I start Monday lol. It's the perfect schedule for me. I know I am going to love it there!!! Thanks for everyones kind words of encouragement and good luck vibes! :D

[Karen]

Congratulations, and good luck!

[Albea]

Congratulations! It sound like a great job...

[Rocky'smomma]

I'll be doing tech work/receptionist work. The place gets really busy so he wants someone who can go back and forth. So I get to help vaccinate animals, assist in surgeries, prep pets for surgery, answer phones, set appointments and CLEAN! lol It will be so much fun...I can even bring Morgan to work with me if I want! haha :p


I just can't wait to get busy again! I love surgeries! The downside of course is euthanizing the animals, but I am sure I can deal once I get those puppy licks and kitty headbumpies. :D

Thanks again everyone!:)

[neko1]

Yeah!! Congrats to you!!! I also love being a tech:) It's the best job!

[krazyaboutkatz]

Congrats on the new job. :D It sounds like it will be perfect for you. I've also always wanted to do this for a living but now I'm afraid it's too late.
