Where do I start? Working as a kennel assistant is not as grand as people may think it is.
I’ve been working at my place of work for 2 1/2 years now and a year and a half ago…I loved it.
However, the work has caught up to me. Being pulled hard by dogs, constantly bending squatting, help everyone else in the hospital, all the cleaning. I’m so tired for the the amount I get paid for, burnt out. I make $13.50 and today I just found out a coworker of mine who has only been workin leg here for 9 months makes more than me, only by 50 cents but still.
I don’t feel appreciated, I keep getting blown off from getting a raise because they want to see improvement but how do I put my 100% in when I don’t want to work here anymore? I don’t have the energy or mental capacity but it also just makes it worse. Everyone else so easily kisses ass. I’m not one of those people and that’s probably why.
Some of my coworkers are passive aggressive and kennel works get treated like servants and children. I am 23 for fucks sake. We have to wait for technicians to check us out before we can leave the hospital, god damn fuck you.
I’m struggling to find another job as I feel like I’ll be going backwards if I go back to food or retail.
I have a key to the fucking hospital and last Saturday a technician told my coworkers and i to wrap it up because it was time to go but they literally can go! She was extremely passive aggressive and starting slamming drawers. I was so closed to punching her.
Just AHHHHH!!!!!!
