Chessington World of Adventures ‘robot panda operator’ job is full of un-bearable puns

Chessington put a pun-laden advert on social media, while a spokesman described it as “arguably the greatest job in the world.” Although some people might argue that spending all day sweating inside a robot panda suit is far from the greatest job in the world.
