Mother 💚💚💚
💐What they don't tell you about being a mother💐
The sleepless nights will end.
They will eventually get potty-trained.
You will miss their pudgy little baby feet.
They will test your patience and you will cry at times, but it will get better.
Teenagers are trying to be independent but they still need you.
You will be both happy and yet profoundly sad when they leave home.
Adult children will amaze you and when they become parents they will thank you for all that you did.
Grandchildren are the best thing ever.
You get to relive being a parent but you also get to sleep.
Enjoy every minute when your children are young, for the days are long but the years are short💚💚💚💚💚💚
Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.
We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
-
9.5% For. Self-service is less frustrating and convenient.
-

-
47.1% Against. I want to deal with people.
