Your Fault
Stupid guy i thought was the vet. is actually her husband and he's just in charge of the business side of things. Anyway he sent me an e-mail at 10:25 this morning asking if i could come in at 12:30pm today, correct me if im wrong but isn't it common courtesy to let a person know at least 24 hours before an interview so that they can be properly prepared? Well yeah, so i told him i could be there but also explained that I might be late as i didn't get his e-mail until 25 mins before the interview and then i had to find a way there. So i get there and everything is going well, until i make one lil remark. The client asked me if his dog was handsome, i responded "yes, he is very handsome for a toy dog" simply meaning that in comparison to a dog of a different size say my dog he'd still be nice looking but no dog is as handsome as my boy. Anyway, i'll admit i shouldn't have said that. If u haven't caught on they don't want me. His reasons being i wasn't dressed appropriately, i was in the way, i was slouching, and i insulted a client. reason #1, i wasn't dressed appropriately because i did not have adequate time to change into something more interview appropriate although since i was also observing im not sure if business casual would have been appropriate for a vet clinic but i digress, given more time that would not have been an issue. #2 i was in the way, i was never given anything to do and was where he told me to be and i was doing what he told me to do, observe their receptionist, who by the way kept disappearing. #3 i was slouching, i was NOT slouching, i was leaning and there was absolutely no one in the office so sorry i can't sit up perfectly straight and do nothing for u all day. and #4 i already covered and the client didn't seem upset with me and he didn't say anything, neither did the receptionist. He also told me they'd tried this once before and the last girl just left one day and never came back, never told any of them why she was leaving or anything, well here's an idea because we're college students not robots, sometimes we're going to mess up, with out instruction we're not sure what to do and it'd be nice to not be so criticized, i mean seriously im only 19 and have absolutely no formal training as a receptionist so maybe you could have said, hey Sara why don't you do this or that, if they'd done that i guarantee that they'd keep more receptionists. So in conclusion, if they aren't going to give me any instruction and are going to get mad at me for doing what they tell me to do and being where they tell me to be, they don't deserve me. Biggest downer is they're the only vet clinic in Clifton.
