I took Jodie Isabella in to the vet
for her last set of shots just a bit ago.
I am not happy.
The technician that is at the front desk
and who also does the shots is
well just driving me crazy.
Any time I ask a question she answers
like she doesn't know anything about anything.
This has been going on since I got Jodie.
(This person is a recent hire.
Not who I have had in the past.)
I have previously wondered why they hired her.
I just don't get it.
On the phone she's the same way.
And, every time I take Jodie in for her shots,
I get this person.
And every time, she's still the same.
So it isn't that she's new to the job.
So it isn't that she's new to the job.
She forgets to put Jodie's weight on the paperwork.
I have to remind her and today just was the worst.
She tells me she's left handed
and has to have Jodie in this position or that position.
(This is the first time Jodie was big enough
to get her shots while on the floor
instead of on the exam table.)
She poked my baby three times.
Still couldn't get it in.
Had to get a new needle.
The next time with me helping
I sort of held my hand down on Jodie's tail.
Jodie yelled
and all sorts of people came to see what happened.
This tech quickly says that I stepped on my dog.
I so wanted to say that this tech doesn't know what she's doing.
When she was done with the three shots,
I had to remind her that Jodie needed her nails trimmed.
Then there was the talk about if I wanted to help her do it
or if it was ok to take Jodie in the back
so she could get some help doing it.
I tell you I was so glad to get out of there.
Glad and mad.
Why do they hire someone like that ?
Now, I need to find a new vet.
I really can't take this anymore.
Today was it.
I can't trust my baby to this place.
I've been going there for over ten years.
I like the vet but who hires someone like this.
Seriously .. I won't have her touch my baby again.
I feel like telling this vet why I'm leaving
but he has so much business
that he wouldn't care and I'm sure
he'd think it was me and not his employee.
How do you find a good vet
for your babies ?
Seriously, I thought I had one
but now I don't.
Hope your Friday and weekend is fun
and all your Purr and Fur Balls
are napping away.

She's napping now.
