The Vet

During my twelve years tenure in the chettinad stud, India I had the privilege of working along with about 30 vets. When I came to janadriya, some youngsters working in india at regular intervals used to contact me for a job in Saudi Arabia. One such vet who worked along with me, after coming here had ridiculed who ever worked along with him(the seniors and juniors)before and passed some derogatory comments about many. The funny thing was that he was thinking too high about him and he was arguing with his superiors even on trivial matters and quarrelling with his subordinate staff. After a year the management had felt it was enough of him and fired. Another vet who had come here wanted to impress everyone and started talking about doing so many new things which had never been heard by the owner before, like inferior check ligament desmotomy, etc. When there was a colic in his stable he tubed and had to ask the help of another vet to arrest the bleeding due to naso-gastric tubing. My sincere advise to the youngsters is that this place is too adventurous and people have seen so many vets, and they have a habbit of comparing. What you will do counts not your past glory of working alongside some big names in the industry.
