I'm tired of my job. Of walking dogs in the morning, cleaning out the kennels, picking up shit, being told by my Supervisor that I'm dumb, getting scratched everyday, wearing ugly blue scrubs, and pretty much just working in the lowest department of that Hospital. Yeah, okay, I admit somedays I love my job. When I'm Bather for the day and I spend my time with lovely cats and dogs, and bathing them and petting them while listening to the radio. Working on my own, because for that day I'm my own boss. I love the friends I've made, and eveything I've learning working in Treatment. Giving fluids, applying medication, and general animal TLC.

But I need change after a year and a half of the same ole thing. If it's one thing I hate it's routine. A B C D E F G . . . blah blah blah.

So I applied for a job as a Direct Lender through my school. I thought "Hey, they might not want a Veterinary Assistant but I have nothing to lose". And today, they called to set up an interview for this Friday. I guess it's a bit too early to celebrate or give my two-weeks notice, but I have to admit that I'm stoked. To know that I can turn in my resume full of skills that I'll use nowhere else but in a Veterinary Hospital and still be considered for an office job (talk about the other end of the spectrum!) is amazing. I really hope I get the job there. Or that if I do, that I truly enjoy my co-workers and the environment that I'll be in. I know the pay is good (one reason I applied for the job), but some things I rather have more than others, you know?

My mom isn't quite so happy with me wanting to leave my "stable" job but I'm not happy there. I hate the gossiping and constant drama amongst a few of my co-workers, and the $10.35 I make per hour isn't what I should be getting paid for the hard physical labor I put in day after day back in Kennel.

So here's to praying that I get the job. Or that I at least make it through the interview without breaking into too much of a sweat! :)
