In a Rut
*Warning, I'm Grumpy*
I've seen my H a whole 5 days this month and it's really starting to wear on me, plus I am getting sick! We lost another dog to cancer today and there wasn't a damn thing we could do to help him. It's not fair and it scares the sh*t out of me that it could happen to my dogs. I really love what I do but some days it is so draining that it is hard to go back each day and continue to be positive. It doesn't help that I'm not 100% loving where I work. My boss has been a vet for 30+ years and you can tell she is burnt out from it. Unfortunately, because of where I live, finding another job (in my field) isn't super easy and I make good money where I am at. I would start out at the bottom some place else and I don't want to do that. I'm in a career where moving up isn't really an option without moving to a much bigger city and we don't want to do that (COL is suuuuuper cheap where I live). Ugh, I just need a vacation but, again, because of where I work that isn't really possible. There are four employees total (vet, 2 techs, receptionist) so no one to cover for me if I did want to go some place nice with my H. I'd feel guilty leaving my co-worker to work by herself while I'm off having a vacation. Anyways, if you've made it this far, I greatly appreciate it. I've mostly rambled but I really needed to get it all off my chest and I can't talk to Tim because he's on the governments dime for the next week (dumb!). I love having you ladies for support, it means the world
