Oppotunity
I enjoy working with sport youngsters and assisting them with all their requirements. I naturally go above and beyond my job description as perfection and good results are reached within the daily 8 hours. I work more than my 8 hours at work as I do court sessions with the athletes after my office hours. The challenges are based on the economical experiences that affect budget.
Pros: Many avenues to venture out into
Cons: Unpredictable challenges
