I was a Petland Employee repost (with proof) continue to AMA

Have you bought an iron yet?

Probably shoved it in a drawer after he quit and didnt think about it until he needed it for a quick picture.

I found it in a trash bag, no joke.

As in?

He’s trolling on your wrinkled uniform.

Oh. Honestly, I forgot I stole it. I just moved, and I found it in all my stuff. guess It came in handy as proof. I just kinda walked out after a shift, and then went home and realized I had 3 uniforms from a few days back. One of them is my painting/car working garb, and the other 2 are just loungers.

I looked up cherry eyes before writing this and that’s insane. How can you do that to a poor dog? My question for you is, how many sleepless nights did you have knowing this was going on? For me, it would eat me up and I have two of my own with one that passed away this year

It was a regrettable time in my life

Why is the body deleted?

Mods deleted the post

What?

Your parent comment. Was on the second line of reading and it was deleted before I got anywhere.

oh yeah. The mods deleted it until I gave more proof that I am who I say I am

What in your opinion is the dumbest animal Petland sells?

I don't know... goldfish are pretty dumb animals
/s

What would you do to the owners?

If I had the legal authority? I'd file an account of animal neglect/abuse on the manager.

Why did you not feel a moral obligation to say something until the story was getting traction?

I reported it while I worked there. The local humane society just never said anything to me.

That’s good. How unfortunate to work there while all this was happening. Do you ever feel like you should have done more?

It's more a question of 'could I have done more?' If I over pushed my boundaries, it's likely the humane society wouldn't have gotten involved

wtf? i thought petstores were made illegal like a decade ago - I haven't seen any since then

They still exist, sadly. Some actually aren't that bad, mostly just ones that sell, like, goldfish aren't bad.

My goldfish died because I fed him too much, what is the optimal way to feed a goldfish?

Depends on the type of goldfish. Some need a bit more food than others. I would say if it's a traditional gold fish; 2-3 times a day. Watch how much they eat in 90 seconds to get an estimate of how much per feeding

How close are you to becoming vegan?

Honestly... I don't think I could be vegan. Vegetarian... maybe... but not vegan

I'm the one who tipped off the humane society

I aint watching the video because I hate youtube. Can you explain exactly what you mean by abused? Like specifically? Sorry if this would be obvious by watching the video, i just rather read things

A lot of the stuff started kicking up after I left, so some of that stuff is new to me

How many animals did you personally abuse?

Oh god, none! I wasn't that person. I specifically left because animals were getting abused

Oh ok lol I thought you were going to ask for forgiveness or something. Good on you then =)

Oh no. Honestly, if I wasn't in fear of legal ramifications, I would've stolen a dog or two to save them before I left

Charlie? Oops.

Delete this, even if you’re joking. Making him able to be found by the exact people that he was trying not to is a super dick move, and could seriously mess his life up.

Trust me, there's no way the people will find me. I do still know a bunch of people who work there, but they're doing the same thing I'm doing, getting ready for some loud, unnamed tips

Why did you say something sooner? It’s kinda annoying that you didn’t imo

I mentioned this in the previous post that got removed because I didn't have my proof pic. I was a teenager who needed money. The Kennel itself wasn't abusive, just the manager. I quit just before it started to get really bad.
