My first day on the job at Petco...

[Zippy]

Happy you like working at petco so much.
I know how you feel the hardest thing for me to accept is that i can't save them all.

I'm glad you like the job!!

Some people...did that woman just randomly dial the first thing she saw in the phone book with the word "pet?"

[BC_MoM]

Wow, you're great at resisting yourself! If that were a dog, I would have totally caved and said I'll take it! LOL

Glad youre enjoying your job for the MOST PART.

Glad it's working out!!

It just boggles my mind that someone would call a pet store about surrendering a pet. But I guess it really shouldn't surprise me. *sigh*

*HUGS*

You will do good with that job. Keep up the good work!

Did you think to tell the lady to check with the local rescue orginazations in her area? Maybe they could help her.......

[cyber-sibes]

glad to hear you love it, Donna! weird phone call, but I guess you'll eventually hear everything!

[Karen]

I'm surprised they don't have the Humane Society and rescue group's phone numbers by the phone for just such incidences. Just a task for the new kid to do I guess!

[Chica]

Donna, I am so glad you like your job!To bad people like that lady had to call to your store!!

I work at Petco too. I get calls like that all the time (I usually refer them to www.utahpets.org for a list of rescue groups) as well as people wanting to buy puppies/kittens, wanting vet care, etc. We do have a phone number list of rescue groups, humane societies, shelters, etc. but most of the time I'm very busy (I'm a groomer) so I don't have time to give them all of those numbers, and it is easy to find at the website anyway. The best is when they call here wanting a grooming appointment and we are booked so they ask me to give them the numbers of other groomers to call. Um, if they looked up our number, I think they can manage to look up the rest of them!
