I once applied for a job at RCH specifically because the desk I’d be at all day, manning the reception for one of the outpatient clinics, was in direct sight of the meerkat enclosure they’ve got.
I did not get the job.
That wasn’t the only reason - the clinic is one I would have attended as a child, for kids with very similar conditions to what I have…I figured it would be good for kids and parents to see an adult version of their own experiences - but it was a big part of it!
