Very true. My ex- was nervous about accepting a vet tech position for about a year before she started vet school.

She was nervous because they "required"/"only wanted" someone who "was going to be there long term".

I asked her: "They want you to make commitments to them that you will be there for a long term. Are they willing to make the same commitment to you? Or are you out the door the moment you are unneeded?"
