Long Lines Persist at the Vet as a Stressful Profession Copes With Shortages

Dearth of veterinarians, vet techs remains after disruptions during Covid-19 pandemic

 

[Twilight Hue]

Welcome to life and reality.

 

[The Hammer]

Welcome to life and reality.

Huh?

 

[Twilight Hue]

Huh?

It's how things work now. Adapt.

 

[Secret Chief]

Huh?

Covered in ****? Don't try to change it.

 

[The Hammer]

It's how things work now. Adapt.

Covered in ****? Don't try to change it.

What? Care to elucidate?

 

[Secret Chief]

What? Care to elucidate?

It was just a rephrasing of the advice.

 

[Father Heathen]

It's how things work now. Adapt.

Says the man who sobbed over a plastic bag ban. Why couldn't you adapt to that?

 

[Twilight Hue]

Says the man who sobbed over a plastic bag ban. Why couldn't you adapt to that?

I did.

Save of course for the man who is so consistently dense minded to think plastic bags itself was focus in the first place, in spite of multiple and futile attempts to point out its the legal mechanisms instituted to control people and businesses and not the bags themselves.

Adapt.

 

[Twilight Hue]

Adapt.

Yep. Keeping along with pro authoritarian advocates everywhere.

I'm not "pro authoritarian" (but is banning harmful materials like asbestos and lead paint really that?), but you suggested people should adapt rather than attempt to fix things.

I prefer educated. Not demonizing things to the likes of the apoplectic dawn of mankind to justify authoritarian policymaking.

 

[Father Heathen]

I prefer educated.

You deny science and lap up **** fed to you by lobby funded, agenda driven politicians, so I doubt it.

 

[Windwalker]

Welcome to life and reality.

I guess you must not have a family pet, or just don't really give a **** about it's health and wellbeing. Oh well, that's life and reality. Some people just don't care for their own animals. I've never understood why they own them then. For food?

No. Just being realistic to note nothing is actually accomplished other than more and more control exercised over people by authoritarian advocates.

If it was something that could be actually corrected, this subject wouldn't even be discussed.

I see things beyond one's control and abilities to correct, as the realities of life and living for pets or human. It's actually a neutral assessment.

 

[The Sum of Awe]

Aww. It really is the end

 

[Viker]

Wait! There was a plastic bag ban?!

Yup. The line at the vet seemed extraordinarily long. My dogs were patient, although.
