I worked as a veterinary assistant for 3 years and two different clinics. The first, was a two doctor practice with one technician and four assistants including myself. We worked from 7am to as late as 11pm for minimum wage. I did everything a technician did for no pay or recognition. I recently moved across the country and am currently in school in the PF program.

[@MissTopDJ007]

Could you explain what you meant by you did everything as a tech but no pay? Are you saying you didn't get paid as a vet assistant?

[@Ddeath.Eaterr]

@@MissTopDJ007looks like she got exploited by her employers. She was a vet assistant but did all the work of a vet tech but wasn’t paid like a vet tech

Hi, hello! I have more of a question about the vet tech program you went through (pennfoster). Do you think it would be possible to finish the program in 12 months? Also, does one have to take videos of clinical/ extern tasks and then send them in?
