Default The PSSA (Pet Shop Staff Anonymous) thread

We are seeing quite a few threads of late about how bad pet shops are & have had plenty of examples of why some people think pet shops are bad.

So come on fellow pet shop staff, post in this thread if you work in a pet shop. You don't have to name the pet shop, just come forward & state if you work in a pet shop. It will be interesting to see how many members work in pet shops.

I work in a pet shop in Preston, & love it! My collegue is also a member on here who will no doubt come along soon.

I work in a Reptile shop part time. Absolutely love the job and all the animals i get to work with. Ive been bitten, scratched and projectile peed on, tail whipped, constricted and had a few narrow misses with tarantulas and loved every minute of it.

Also managed to get over my fear of snakes (mostly) even if i was laughed at for squealing when a baby corn hissed at me.
