The Truth Apparently

Yesterday me and my father were talking about jobs. I've told him that I've been applying to jobs that deal with animals but haven't had luck yet. Its been 3 years of searching but I do believe eventually I will. But my father came out and said that my dream is unrealistic. At my brother's graduation from college there was over 100 people who graduated from animal care. I dont have a diploma. I've done animal courses online and I have my pet CPR. My father also said that most people have jobs that they hate and will never get there dream job. All my family except my brother have always complain about there jobs. I do hope that i find a job i will like.

Wildlife rehab places alwys need good people. Kennel people who are ethical and kind are badly needed in most places.

Also jobs in doggy day care places are often hiring

You father is speaking bitter workaday reality but if you try very hard and look for jobs that are right for you and don't stop..you will find something

I feel exactly like you, I wanted to do that and had one kennel manager job and then afterwards was old enough to be passed over everywhere due to my age, even though thats illegal in every state

@Elevatorpitches thank you for the words of encouragement. I'm not glad that you've gone through the same experience. But at least I know I'm not the only one going through this.
