Different workplace set up
At my current employment the hours that we work fluctuate as they a controlled by when do we service the last patient as set by daily targets. We all get along as colleague's as we spend a lot of time with other due to the setup of the environment we work in . Due to the fact that we travel the whole of South Africa providing Services you get to learn about different cultures and at the same time appreciate wonders of nature. The most challenging aspect of my job is the long stay away from loved ones as we spend much time travelling.
Pros: FreeTravel oppotunities
