    This is absolutely brilliant! That a wonderful opportunity! Not many people are handed the opportunity to try out a totally different career, knowing that they can still look for jobs in their chosen field. Make the most of it - and let us know how you are getting on, of course.

    Wow, this is so very close to your dream of getting a second degree in animal care... Sounds like you'd have a good boss, too. Keep us posted! Good luck!

    I'm sometimes asked "Why do you spend so much of your time and money talking about kindness to animals when there is so much cruelty to men?" I answer: "I am working at the roots." -George T. Angell, reformer (1823-1909)

    Thank you everyone, for your support! I was really surprised that he seemed cool with me still looking for another job while I worked at his office. I think this will be an opportunity like no other, and it helped me determine that this will be a hobby. I still feel more at home behind a computer working in the computer industry. In the meantime (who knows, it could be 2 months, 6 months, 1 year!).
    I officially start on a schedule next week, but I'm to go in tomorrow and Monday just so I can get to know the other vet and how he interacts with all the interns. After that, I'm going to be schedule to work Tuesdays, Wednesdays(only half day), and Fridays. Ths way I will also have time to still look for computer jobs and finish up the website that I am doing for my sister's and brother-in-law's winery.

    Today I got to see a neuter surgery. The pug went into surgery for his broken arm today. I was brave enough to peek in the room during this procedure, but I also knew enough that a peek was enough!
    It was pretty slow today, so I only stayed for half day. I have no idea what I'm going to do tomorrow. I feel a little awkward, because everyone else is a vet tech student or something and I'm just clueless with everything that goes on. Hopefully I'll catch on quickly!

    KAK, want to join the crew? 2 people will be leaving in a couple of weeks, so I know they're looking for more people!

    **hugs**

    That sounds like a great schedule Karen! You'll still have time for the shelter too, huh?

    I bet you'll like it there, for however long you plan to be there for. It sounds like such a wonderful experience.

    Can't wait to hear all about your day today. Call me when your off line?
    ...RIP, our sweet Gini...

    This sounds tempting. Do they need any help on weekends? Where is the office located? You can pm me all about it. This sure sounds like a great opportunity for you and your boss sounds very nice too. Congrats Karen.
