Greetings Curious Scroller,
If you've never landed in this part of cyber space before, you have taken a hard, fast plunge into the fiery depths of work hell. RHU is dedicated to giving the service worker a voice. If you are an angry customer, a corporate suite, a homophobic race-hater, and you don't like skull masks or swear words, this blog isn't for you. Click away now, before your ears bleed and your eyes explode.
I'm Freddy, Crypt Keeper of Retail Hell Underground RHU -- a place for service slaves to have a voice, tell their story, support each other, or just have a chuckle about the insanity of working in the 10th Circle of Hell! I'm also the author of "Retail Hell," the funny memoir about life as a handbag sales associate at an upscale department store! The sequel, "Return To The Big Fancy," has just been released in hardcover and e-reader and is available wherever books are sold!
Oh lord....*hurk*...*gak*...seriously, expressing out the contents of anal glands is NOT fun.

Wow. Glad they have a sense of humor about it. My pug needed this done regularly; one day, the vet came out with a look of horror on her face; I was scared something was wrong until she told me that his glands had shot the gunk past her face and about 10 feet onto the wall! They were never as bad after that first time though!

I am forever glad my dogs growing up never had an issue with this. The smell will put the worst diaper to shame.

oh god, one of the cats I lived with... her owner freaked out because the cat was vomiting. I told her the cat's anal glands were prolly impacted again and she was constipated from it. (constipation can make you sick to your tummy.) didn't believe me. BUT GUESS WHAT. anal glands. so worth 20 bucks for the vet to take care of it.

LOL. Yeah the smell of anal glands is pretty gnarly. Good sign.

I have never had a pet have that problem. I just could not deal with that.

I used to work in a vets office and suffice it to say just the smell alone was enough to make the vet sick. But once they're expressed the pet feels sooo much better!

I used to be (in my much younger days) a dog bather at grooming shop. EVERY dog we bathed had to have its anal gland either checked or expressed. most dogs did not mind it but some got downright vicious and for some it was painful.
Not a very pleasent smell either.
