        Nein! It is however a 2-day-per-week call centre job. The 2 working days offsets the call centre aspect haha

          Hrrmm. Keep applying for animile jobs. Then you can tell call centre to FO with zero guilt.

            The plan is to us the pay from this job to pay for intensive driving lessons to fast track getting my Ps; almost all animal attendant roles require a driver’s licence, so once I get that I can start really throwing myself at those jobs. And it will be easy to attend any interviews if I only work two days a week.

            I’m still applying for the animal roles anyway, because you never know lol

      No. Birds don’t have bank accounts, so the $$ is kinda theoretical if you did pick up on the offer.

    Yesterday was productive. I managed to get two weeks worth of the antibiotics Melbcat needs, plus her solensia and vitamin b and a kidney check.

    I’m going to be grabbing the other bottle of antibiotics from her usual vet as well just to be sure. It still isn’t in. How long has it been??

    The lesion on her lip is more unusual than that one on her nose and may need a biopsy. :(
