When I was 16 I wanted to be an airline stewardess.
When I was 18 I wanted to work in the theatre so I took acting classes.
While taking acting classes I worked in an office to pay for it.
When I was 26 I went back to school and upgraded my office skills then got a job as a teaching assistant at a local college.
From 28 to 30 I followed my Ex around the province and remained unemployed.
When I was 31 we returned to the Coast and I've been working ever since, currently in IT.
Nowhere in my career did I ever think of working with animals, but now that I'm older I wish I'd made that choice.
I like my job and it pays enough for the mortgage and because I've been here 18 yrs, I do get alot of perks, but it's not my passion. With only 14 yrs to go until retirement, I would be a fool to leave now.
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

Until one has loved an animal, part of their soul remains unawakened.
