Vets Costs (This might make you jealous)

I am now probably going to shoot myself in the foot.
The problem is vets like ours are a dying breed they probably entered the profession as a vocation but now (and quite rightly so) they expect to get paid a decent salary.
I was noting on another thread that bin loaders are moaning that they only get £15k-£18k a year. Everybodys lifestyle expectations have risen dramatically over the past 20 years.
If all jobs pay grades were decided by how long a higher education course lasts then vets would be amongst the highest earners which of course they aren't. Not like lawyers who are in the main exceptionally greedy/expensive and in many instances very ineffective.
I just thank our lucky stars and hope our vet doesn't retire to soon because we will be in for a big shock when that day comes.
Oh for simpler times

We're lucky too with our Vet. She had fleas a few years back and they just charged us for the drops, no consultation fee. And when we wanted advice about worm drops it was "i'd recommend" and not "you need"!0
