MOM---Job Description 20060413




這是一位住在美國的好友寄給我的 , 看完之後有點””悔不當””的感覺 , 說實話 , “母親這個角色還真不是每個人都勝任有餘的 , 即便我要生小獸是在自己的計劃中,但在初為人母充滿喜悅的一刻持續沒有多久之後,接踵而來的是生活秩序的混亂, 長期的睡眠不足, 照料新生兒的心力交瘁, 更不用說部份的自我空間及時間被徹底剝奪........但是, 在這代的女性有自主的選擇之下, 還是有那麼多的人願意選擇經歷身體仿佛被撕裂的生產之痛,及上述的育兒過程並且無怨無悔, 我想它一定是值得的 , 只是我必須耐心地等待並且慢慢體會,就像每一代的母親一樣.




MOM----JOB DESCRIPTIONThis is hysterical. If it had been presented this way, no one would have done it!!!! 

POSITION:
Mother, Mom, Mama, Mommy, 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. 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 retraining 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 for life if you play your cards right.
Send this on to all the Moms you know, in appreciation for everything they do on a daily basis, and let them know they are appreciated!!
