Interesting or nice about this vacancy
By regularly doing things together, you break the monotony of someone who is often alone and has few social contacts. Moreover, you are a reliable and calming presence for someone who experiences a lot of disappointment and stress. And all this for a patient, interested woman who loves wordplay.
Tasks and duties
A lady of nearly 70 has few social contacts. She would love to go cycling with someone, visit museums, or simply have a cup of coffee somewhere. She is looking for an equal partner, a reciprocal relationship. She is a good listener and has a sense of humor (puns), and tends to observe the situation before acting. Due to circumstances, she has a lot of difficulty with sensory overload and stress. It is therefore important that a companion takes this into account. Finally, she finds it difficult to do things on the computer. If a companion could also occasionally look over her shoulder at that, that would be wonderful. Would you enjoy building an equal relationship with this lady?
Skills and qualities
- You are patient and calm, and can take into account someone who is sensitive to stimuli.
- You can join in with this lady's question.
- That would be great: if you enjoy helping out a bit on the computer.
