Now hiring! The bakery. The gas station. The hardware store. The grocery store. The sporting goods shop. Restaurants. The company that contracts with the schools to provide bus service. All these businesses are hiring seasonal workers. They are all advertising with signs in their windows, on their doors, on their marquees, or with large banners. When you arrive in town (any town)
and need work, take a drive through the business community. Look. You'll see those signs, too.
We ordered new tires for our trailer this week. The old ones still have decent tread, but they are cracking from old age. As the foundation of our home on wheels, they need replacing. I'm thankful Bob does regular
maintenance and that he is very safety minded.
Please take time to check the tires on your RV home. New ones are expensive, for sure. But, not replacing them when they need it can be even more costly. Travel safely!
Wherever you are in your
work and travels, we wish you joy and prosperity,Coleen= = = = =

Flight Seeing Tours in Alaska
Flight seeing tour companies hire numerous seasonal workers each summer. No, that's not a typo for "sightseeing." It really is supposed to be "flight" seeing. Maybe it is just an Alaskan thing.

Working RVer Tip - Jobs for the Public Are Jobs for RVers
Jobs open to the general
public are also open to RVers. However, the reverse is not always true. Some jobs are exclusively for RVers, usually because they require you to provide your own on-site living accommodations in a recreational vehicle. When looking for job leads, check the non-RV specific resources, also.

Writing a Good Work Wanted Ad
~ State your skills and accomplishments relevant to the job you want. It is easy to write that you are responsible, a hard worker, and can handle all aspects of the job. What employer will believe it? After all, have you ever seen an employee describe himself as a not-too-bright, irresponsible deadbeat? Be specific.
~ Focus on your talents and capacity to do the job. Do your age, marital status, pets, children, type of RV, and home state have anything to do with improving your ability to do the work you seek? Are they relevant to the job for which you are applying? If not, don’t mention them.
~ Your ad is a sample of your
communication skills. Proofread and correct spelling, grammar, and punctuation mistakes. The way you write your ad says more about your communication skills than any words you use to describe them. Rather than telling the employer you have good communications skills, let your Work Wanted ad or resume show them.

Still, you have to figure out a way to make money with it. If you'd like to see some examples of how of how others are going about it, see the case studies on SiteBuildIt!

Positive RVing Attitudes
There are two ways of exerting one's strength: one is pushing down, the other
is pulling up. ~ Booker T. Washington
