A short response would be to try and create a fun and relaxed atmosphere in the clinic. This could involve having regular team lunches, setting up a break room with games and snacks, or holding social events outside of work.

I cut our workload down. No new clients except emergencies, and appointments are slightly more spaced out. It has made a world of difference.

I’m a very experienced veterinary assistant who has been doing this job for about 4 years in total however because of my skill level I would say I am more of an unlicensed technician. I’m looking for input on what I should ask for a raise. Given the minimum wage, I make about $5 over but that hasn’t really changed to match inflation of living, etc and truly feel like I should be making a decent amount more given my skills. Any helpful advice?
