Update from Your RV Workers On Wheels Newsletter Editor

This week, I'm sharing something from my mailbox. It's about why RVers work.

An RVer writes, "Some RV park owners practice total snobbery. They only want someone who is driving a million dollar motorhome. Why someone who has that kind of money would be looking for a camping job is beyond me."

Here are my thoughts: "Birds of a feather flock together." Have you heard the phrase? Some RVers who drive the expensive motorhomes want to park exclusively with others driving similar coaches. They create a demand for the exclusive motorhome-only RV parks.

That doesn't make the park owners snobs. It makes them business owners who provide a service RVers want and for which they are willing to pay. It is understandable that they would want their staffs' rigs to blend in with that of their clientele.

People driving those expensive motorhomes need jobs for the same reasons anyone else does. Money to make the payments on those high-dollar rigs is one reason. Cutting their campground costs by working in exchange for their site may be what makes it possible for them to afford their rigs. Or, again, just like people driving the less fancy rigs, they want to stay busy, contribute to society, use their skills, gain new skills, or simply be productive citizens.

Another reason the park may limit what kind of RVs stay in it has to do with zoning and bylaws. Some have regulations that restrict they type of RV allowed in the park.

Things are not always as they seem. Sometimes, even though we don't understand the reasons, there are good reasons why something is the way it is.

There are jobs for RVers -- whatever your income level, and regardless of what kind of RV you have.

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

Coleen

Working RVer Tip -- Follow Through to the Website for More Jobs

Businesses often have more jobs available than what they indicate in their Help Wanted ad. When they list a website, go there to look for other job openings. For example, when checking on a listing for a camp host, I found they also needed substitute teachers, substitute cooks, and temporary account clerks.

Something to Think About

A thankful heart is not only the greatest virtue, but the parent of all the other virtues. ~ Cicero
