This week, Emily Ione-Kinney stopped by the Vet Tech Cafe to talk about bullying in the workplace.  This problem takes many forms, and we discuss what lateral violence looks like (those with an equal title-dr vs dr, tech vs tech, etc) and what vertical violence looks like (dr vs tech, for example).  She offers many ideas for solutions to this complicated and rampant problem in our field.  She also shares some eye-opening statistics and stories from an informal survey she conducted recently about bullying in the veterinary hospital setting.  Grab yourself a cup of coffee and join us for the discussion!
