    From vet tech to lpn

    tammy07 replied to Tiffanytlc's topic in LPN/LVN

    I just left the animal world 2 years ago, I went to lpn school and I have been working in ltc for a year I miss the animals and I still try to do a little bit of that but the pay is a lot better in the human world you can actually do more medically for the animals than you can people the major difference is that people bite harder...LOL
