I would guess that the best part of being a vet is getting to go on some luxurious trips and not having to pay for them. Like for continuing education. You gotta pay for the class, but hotel and stuff= free.

True.  Also meals paid for by drug reps can be pretty nice.  We've been to two steakhouses this year on someone else's dime and all we had to do was listen to some pitch about different drugs for heartworm prevention. 

They also pick some cool locations. Always a good time.

a canadian friend on mind (not a vet) had to turn down trips to vegas and chicago in may from drug rep type people. the meals aren't really worth it in his opinion. the guy doesn't really like talking to people all that much though so who knows.

There wasn't much talking on our part.  We just listened as we ate free food and drank cheap booze.  Totally worth it. 


I still want my cooler, bitches!
