mums position

franni — Sat, 03 Feb 2007 15:37:05 -0800

POSITION:
Mother, Mum, Mama, Mummy, Mumma, Ma

JOB DESCRIPTION:
Long term, team players needed, for challenging permanent work in an, often chaotic environment. Candidates must possess excellent communication and organizational skills and be willing to work variable hours, which will include evenings and weekends and frequent 24 hour shifts on call. Some overnight travel required, including trips to primitive camping sites on rainy weekends and endless sports tournaments in far away cities. Travel expenses not reimbursed. Extensive courier duties also required.

RESPONSIBILITIES:
The rest of your life. Must be willing to be hated, at least temporarily, until someone needs $5 (or more). Must be willing to bite tongue repeatedly. Also, must possess the physical stamina of a pack mule and be able to go from zero to 60 mph in three seconds flat in case, this time, the screams from the backyard are not someone just crying wolf. Must be willing to face stimulating technical challenges, such as small gadget repair, mysteriously sluggish toilets and stuck zippers. Must screen phone calls, maintain calendars and coordinate production of multiple homework projects. Must have ability to plan and organize social gatherings for clients of all ages and mental outlooks. Must be willing to be indispensable one minute, an embarrassment the next. Must handle assembly and product safety testing of a half million cheap, plastic toys, and battery operated devices. Must always hope for the best but be prepared for the worst. Must assume final, complete accountability for the quality of the end product. Responsibilities also include floor maintenance and janitorial work throughout the facility.

POSSIBILITY FOR ADVANCEMENT & PROMOTION:
Virtually none. Your job is to remain in the same position for years, without complaining, constantly re-training and updating your skills, so that those in your charge can ultimately surpass you

PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE:
None required unfortunately. on-the-job training offered on a continually exhausting basis.

WAGES AND COMPENSATION:
Get this! You pay them! Offering frequent raises and bonuses. A balloon payment is due when they turn 18 because of the assumption that college will help them become financially independent. When you die, you give them whatever is left. The oddest thing about this reverse-salary scheme is that you actually enjoy it and wish you could only do more.

BENEFITS:
While no health or dental insurance, no pension, no tuition reimbursement, no paid holidays and no stock options are offered; this job supplies limitless opportunities for personal growth and free hugs and kisses for life; if you play your cards right.

week 36

franni — Sun, 21 Jan 2007 01:46:27 -0800

omg i have only got 4 weeks to go. i have got everythink except the baby change table im picking that up next thursday. i asked my best friend to be in there with me for support she said yes, and she couldnt be more happier to be there and she would love the experience, she has no kids herself so im hoping she dosent freak out, or me freak out on her. my partner will be in there as well.
ive organized my sister to look after lillian while we go in. im still stressing a little about getting to the hospital thou due to we have no car but my sister said her partner jasson if he isnt working will drive me lol i can just imagine he would freak me screaming in the car, he will have to go threw it with my sister in another 4 months time. oh well it will prepare him.
my sister and i are really close and i would love it if i could be there when she has her baby number 4 (first 3 to her ex husband). she said yeah i can andshe would ask her partner but he said no, he only wants to be in there, fair enough but i got a bit upset, i would think she would want me in there for it. she did say if she had another baby i would be in there with her.
i will respect her wishes thou mainly his and wont be there.
just upsets me that she wont beable to share her experience with me.
maybe he will change his mind about it. y a never know do ya?
lillian went to tumble time again she loves it. hey come to think of it i think thats where she learnt to climb on the couch omg it is. amazing!!!!!
lmao kids ey they learn real quick.
