Update from Your RV Workers On Wheels Newsletter Editor
“Why is that job listed on Workers On Wheels when it doesn’t even give you a camping site?” asked one of our readers. Well, it’s there because of the things it does offer.
• Seasonal employment
• Work in a national park
• Pay that is considerably above minimum wage
There's no requirement that working RVers have to park and live on the employer's property. Travel nurses, oilfield workers, and those working for temp staffing agencies live off-site. Tour guides, hospitality workers, and substitute teachers also typically live away from the job site. Construction workers, pipeline welders, and retail staff also tend to find their own RV sties. So do RVers who work for Amazon,
though Amazon does pay the campground cost.
Living on-site can be a big advantage for working RVers. For those who volunteer for non-profits, it is one of the main perks. And, we know retired RVers often want to trade some work hours for their full hook-up site. Still, for many RVers, living on the job site is not part of the deal.
Wherever you are in your work and travels, we wish you joy and prosperity,

Temp Staffing Services: They're Not Just For Office Workers
Temp staffing services don't just fill office jobs. They can place RV workers in every industry. Some recruit RVers for a variety of employment fields. Others specialize in a particular industry.

Working RVer Tip
If you are working outside, remember to drink lots of water. It’s easy to get dehydrated when working outdoors in the sun and heat. If you are accustomed to working in an air conditioned office, and now find yourself with a job in the great outdoors, take heed of your increased need to drink more.
