We took our older dog to the vet to get her teeth looked at and a young woman with a badge reading “Michelle, R.V.T” brought us in and did a quick exam while waiting for the full-fledged vet to come in.
I’m assuming “R.V.T.” stands for Registered Veterinary Technician, and that that is close enough to Michi’s job description for a match.
And, like Michi, she was compentent, very nice, and also pretty. (Of course not as pretty as the real thing, since Michi is consistently on everyone’s Top Ten Best-Looking Dopers list.)
So if you read this Michi and want to trade Florida sunshine for Seattle’s liquid sunshine (= rain) there seems to be a slot for you here already. Of course we might have to get rid of this pesky imposter first, but I’ll be happy to take care of that and any other details.
p.s. You’ll have to dye your hair light brown/blond for the first little while or they’ll notice their regular assistant is missing.
LOL! For a few seconds I actually ran down a quick list of all the places I had been yesterday!
Here in FL we are called CVTs, or certified veterinary technicians, and it is a title I do not yet claim. I am currently going to school to get my certification. Once I pass the state test, I can sit for the national boards and hold on to my title no matter where I move. I should be done in another year. Until then, the imposter Michelle can rest easy in her job.
I agree with you Dry, oddly enough. In the same kind of way as the Isaac Stren story.
One day someone asked Stern what his opinion of David Oistrach, and he said ‘Undoubtedly, he is the second best violin player in the world.’ And then this person was asking him ‘So who is the best player in the orld?’
and Isaac Stern said ‘Ah there are so many.’
I read that from an interview with a Chess grandmaster explaining how it was difficult to rate different grandmasters over the ages.
