Not giving me the vet's report for the prepurchase exams on the day I ask for them is going to be at the top of the list.

Putting your horse away hot is probably going to be number two or three.

Telling me how to do my job is right up there? No, I will not put your favorite ointment if I don't think it's the appropriate choice.

Nor will I use alcohol or hydrogen peroxide to clean an open wound.

I don't give you advice on how to ride your horse (though often I would like to), because that's your job. So don't tell me how to do mine

I am actually very very good at what I do.

So when I ask for a prepurchase exam, you give me my prepurchase exam

Ignoring signs on a horse's stall door will also piss off a vet tech. Especially when the sign says "NO WORK, NO PADDOCK" and you're out there riding him.

(And then when I tell you that the horse is on stall rest and you don't immediately dismount, I will forever think you are just an idiot)

You will also piss me off if you leave shit on the floor of the stables, especially if they are ropes or halters or basically anything a horse could get tangled in (which is really everything let's be honest)

Oh, and I actually don't mind if people lose their temper. Just... if you don't walk away from the horse the moment you do, I will come find you. I don't really lose my temper, which means

I can patiently plot your downfall.
