@HumToTable Boy, the corporatization of veterinary clinics has been terrible, terrible! We had a vet at one of those tell us we needed $10,000 of testing for one of the rabbits at a specialized cancer center down in Los Angeles (part of the corporate family). We got a second opinion with the other vet we knew (local, still not eaten by corporate sharks) and he said "well, let's see if Baytril does the trick" and here she is 8 years later just as happy as can be.
@ai6yr wow. Seeing a lot of that in the area?
@knowprose Hard to tell, except the WARN notices. Definitely not a great economy.
@ai6yr yeah. Locally, 16,000 businesses were noted having closed over the past year. Not that big. But the crunch seems global.
@ai6yr Interesting in that thread to see VCA have layoffs. I left the vet tech world just as the corporatization of veterinary clinics was taking off. I knew it would not be good. Both prices and burnout are up. And now, so is their unemployment.
