Kurt stopped by to chat and told me about his new construction job. He's operating heavy equipment about 35 hours a week. He likes the work and his boss. He really likes the big paycheck. When I'd visited with him not too long ago, he was delivering auto parts. I commented to him that I thought he liked that
job. He replied that the delivery job was great – until he found something better.
And there you have one secret of success: Be positive about one job while keeping your eyes open for something you'll like even more.

Your Working While RVing Questions Answered - Winter Jobs in Florida
~~ Bill asks: My wife and I are full-timers and are interested in finding job opportunities in Florida this winter. We read your newsletter regularly but are not sure how to secure positions in Florida. We
expect to be in Florida in early October. We are both in excellent physical condition and are both computer literate. We would appreciate any suggestions that you could send our way.
~~ I answered in part: A fourth option (and if I were you, this is the one I would choose)…. Wait until you get to Florida this fall.
Find a campground where you think you'd like to live and work for the winter. Check in there for a few days, as a paying customer. While you are there, get involved. Visit with the staff and management, and other RVers there. Take part in activities. When you see something going on, volunteer to help out a little. Be friendly. Get to know people and let people get to know you. By that time, you'll have seen how things work at that particular campground, gotten a feel for the type of park it is,
and had a chance to see if you think you'll fit in. And, the reverse will be true, also, that the owner/manager will have had time to evaluate you. If you decide you like the atmosphere of the park and want to work there, then approach the manager/owner about a position. Doing it this way eliminates so many nasty surprises.
