Jun. 30th, 2010 07:19 am Once you have a veterinary license, either as a Doctor or RVT, you have to do a certain amount of "continuing education" to stay current. Sometimes a drug company with a new product sponsors these, and in order to get a lot of doctors to show up, feed you really good food.
The last one I was at was at a place called "Ruth Chris Steakhouse" where I probably got fed a $50+ dinner. Best steak I've had in years, but the entertainment value was even better. The presentation was on vomiting. All through dinner there are big color pictures on the screen showing vomit, worms, various other parasites, finally a series of postmortem heartworm cases.
Now for the 40 or so veterinary professionals, we are all chowing down on really really good food with no problem.
The waiters are getting physically ill, to the point of spilling things.
