Update from Your RV Workers On Wheels Newsletter Editor

Did you know that some employers pass over applicants simply because they are not smiling in their photographs?

Life skills are very marketable. Think about the things you may do on a regular basis -- working at your computer, cooking, home maintenance, planning social events, organizing volunteer projects, paying bills, yard and garden work, etc. All of those activities can translate into job skills.

Wherever you are in your work and travels, we wish you joy and prosperity,

JR Watkins - Free Products When You Start this Month

Watkins is giving every new consultant who joins this month a $30 gift certificate. On top of that, when you also place a 100-point order this month, I'll give you a $10 gift certificate. The cost to sign up is $29.95. There are no on-going fees or monthly charges.

Bob and I have been selling JR Watkins products since 2005. People love the vanilla, cinnamon, and pepper, the old time remedies, and the natural skin care products - and that makes it easy to sell. The business is extremely flexible. You do as much or as little as you want. No minimum orders. They'll drop-ship the products for you. Work the business wherever your RV travels take you -- USA or Canada. See the product catalog and learn more.

Working RVer Tip -- Update Your Resume Each Season

If you use a resume, review and update it seasonally. List any relevant skills or experiences you've acquired since the last update. Add pertinent information about any job you've had since the last update, such as the dates, notable accomplishments, and the employer contact information. Even if you never submit the resume to an employer, it makes a handy format for keeping track of the information for your own records.
