I've actually got an interview tomorrow as a helper for a mobile vet... no experience required or anything. I'm kind of nervous, but the vet is a friend of a friend, and I think the vet's business partner is a friend, so... maybe it will work out.

Just tell yourself that you won't let yourself do that. It'll be hard, but you're on medication and you will get better and better at controlling the disease.

It was kinda crazy, actually... we had a pet sitter while I was away the other week, and I mentioned to her that I was looking for a job. And then Saturday she called me and said she had a vet friend who wanted a part-time helper. And I was in a community play with someone who's a vet that I -think- is this vet's business partner, and one of my references is the director for that play, and another reference was in the play and happens to be married to a vet, so I might have all kinds of pull for this one. *crosses fingers*

Good luck to you, too, CFK. I can sympathize-- I stopped showing up at a job once. >.> It was a soul-crushing job and I couldn't handle it on top of my depression. The best advice I can give is to set a tolerance bar for jobs and just don't apply for anything above your tolerance level. That... doesn't work if you're talking 'job or food', though.

I gotta admit to being a little jealous, Wyrm. I have a hard time getting rehired for vet's office jobs now because they all think I'm gonna leave and go back to vet school. :( But if you need any advice or want to talk about things, let me know!

It was sheer dumb luck. And I think I'll probably mostly just be doing grunt work, but I'm fine with that. I worked in a pet store once and the animals were about the only good things about my time there. I just hope it works out! *crosses fingers*

I don't even mind the grunt work. I just love being around animals.

And Foxy can always vent to me.

Though this conversation was a page ago, I used to work at a Burger King. It was my first job.

It was a high stress job, kind of like the job I have now (work in the hospital, a majority of that time is in the ER). Though they were different kinds of stress. With fast food, you get stressed from your co-workers, the customers, and then your supervisors who you know won't like your drive through time. At least at my current job, my co-workers are awesome, and keep their cool in a majority of any situation I might be stressed out in. And I feel like I'm doing a great job because I'm helping people figure out what is wrong. Also my stress is mostly from not knowing how to do something, instead of not being fast enough.

I mean, every day I pray that I don't have someone stop breathing (I know CPR, but I'm still afraid of that moment when I will have to use it) around me, but there are some nice quiet times where I really can kick back and relax, rather than being on my feet all the time like I was at BK.

I'm sure it also helps that you get some appreciation in a hospital, Libra. I know that's made a huge difference in my past jobs!
