This will not be updating for the near future

Posted on September 5, 2011 by Bethany

Due to changing jobs and now working for an animal shelter to coordinate adoptions outreach there, I no longer feel that it is ethical for me to keep up this blog.  I will keep it up for awhile because I may return to it in the future after more thought and after I become more comfortable with the ethical interplay between being a private blogger and an employee of a public shelter.

Thank you for reading.  I do miss writing here.

    Congrats on the new job!

    I understand that you don't want to continue the blog further, but… can I ask a question? I'm wondering if I should be using some of my unemployed hours by volunteering at the local shelter. However, I don't want to face rejection if I explain that I'm not going to be available 24/7 if/when I do get a job.
    Do they take volunteers on a short-term basis? I understand that a shelter needs long-term support — I could promise a long-term hour or two a week, but currently I don't know if I'll get a job or what my schedule might be.
    I can promise 24/7 right now, and a limited support in the future, would this be enough for a shelter? I don't want them to laugh in my face and tell me to go elsewhere. (I get enough rejection in the job hunt, thankyouverymuch.)
