That’s A New Pet Peeve

I work at a veterinarian clinic, and we have just sold the practice to another veterinarian, so we sent out letters informing our clients of the change. A pet owner comes in infuriated.

Pet Owner: “I can’t believe you’re trying to sell my dog! I’ll call the cops on you!”

Me: “Ma’am, it’s the clinic that’s being sold. We have no rights to sell yours or anyone else’s pet!”

Pet Owner: “I don’t trust you! I want my files shredded so you can’t find where I live!”

I was never happier to go on lunch and hand a customer over to a manager! When I came back from lunch, the pet owner was gone, but the sound of shredding could be heard from the office.
