Long-term player needed for challenging, permanent work in chaotic environment. Candidates must possess excellent communication and organisational skills and be willing to work evenings, weekends, and frequent 24-hour shifts. Being a parent is one of the most challenging and rewarding roles you will experience in your life. No other life experience is likely to leave you with such a range of emotions, including joy, anger, happiness, frustration, pride, embarrassment, sadness, elation, despair, and love. Sometimes we have to become parents ourselves in order to understand our own parents and what they may have been through when we were children.
