WIFLSRN: I’m still at work and I got here at like 7 this morning. I am going home now, but wanted to post this before I go to my car.
I’ve posted work issues like this before, but my patients can’t exactly tell me what’s wrong, so I have to play detective with the owner’s story and a good physical exam.
The problem? Half the time I’m trying to get a clear, specific answer, and instead I get like a ten minute TED Talk about what the dog looked like when it sneezed in 2019.
And then I’m like, “When did the vomiting start?” and they’re like, “Well, back when we switched to grain free, we also got a new couch…”
Like… ma’am, please. I just need the timeline, not your home decor journey?
So yeah, concise answers would be nice. Some days I swear I need a translator for pet owner storytelling disorder. You know what? I think I just need to find a new line of work. 🫤
