They'll probably start you in the laundry room for three months. It's a pretty easy four hour shift doing industrial laundry and delivering clean towels to the areas. I later moved to kennels. The laundry shift is great in winter, it's really warm with the big dryers. I left because a kennel tech cracked the shits at me for playing with a 'red' coded dog that I'd asked the lead tech about. The dog wasn't aggressive but it was strong and would jump at people with an open mouth creating a bite risk. I'm also a big strong dude so I was trying to help socialise the dog in a calm manner and the mid range tech came in an yelled at me without knowing the full story so I quit.
