What a mess, Aly. I truly do believe that you had to leave that job in order to open up a new era in you life...an era that is far better. I don't understand why anyone would say anything negative about you, unless they were jealous of your skills and the fact that animals seem to be magnetically drawn to you more then anyone else.

I am sorry that this had to happen but I am glad you are out of there. The new place sounds nice and really cute. They are lucky to have you aboard.

Take care and please don't take blame for that guy getting fired. He would not have screamed and yelled and gotten all upset if he valued his job! I am sure he was quite ready to go.

It is so sad that the shelter was a place that was supposed to be strictly dedicated to the care of homeless animals and it had so many politics between the employees. What a shame that any place that houses less fortunate animals has to be such a hostile place to work.

Anyway, take care and know that all of us here really care about you and very much respect your decision. You are better then those people, Aly. You have such a way with animals, and I don't think anyone there has even half of the devotion, compassion, or magnatism that you have. Personally I think they were jealous of the fact that the animals seemed to prefer you, even the super shy ones, and that on top of that, you are so friendly towards people! You have some such wonderful atributes that make up YOU, and I think it is rare what you have and few others have it.
