As a programmer, I start with executing what a parent requests for a haircut for their dog. I then bathe, try shave, trim, style, and pay attention to detail. Be patient with the pet parent, be patient with pets. That's fun, special appointments. It's a fast-paced environment. You have to pay attention. It's a high-stress environment, so there's not a lot of time for breaks. You have to pick things up quickly. There's a lot of answering phones when you're scheduling in between dogs. It's a very high-paced job for a high-stress and a very physical job, but I love it. I've been doing it for 15 years. I love the relationship I have with my customers. I've only missed them. It's been a great job. It's just so worth it.
