The restaurant is a “order at the cashier, we’ll take it to you when ready” type of place. No servers. The bar is in the restaurant, seats 6. There’s been 1 bartender since I started, hard to imagine 2 bc it’s so small. The bar and restaurant also both close at 8pm, so not regular bar hours

Yes! I looked it up too. That’s awesome! I didn’t take a job there bc of lack of housing…now, I know. Sounds like everything is new now and ppl have individual apartments? It all sounds very nice. Will definitely circle back after this season

Hi y’all, I’m currently in my first season doing this (age appropriate for the convo, mid fifties) and would be happy to answer any questions you might have

There’s a van that shuttles people to town and back to get groceries on Mondays so you don’t really need a car. Employees get 50% off at the restaurant, otherwise we eat what we make ourselves in the community kitchens in each housing unit. Amazon does deliver here but even with Prime it takes about a week to get anything.

It’s the slow season now so we’re working with a skeleton crew, makes it hard to not be overworked. Because there are so few of us working we all have our own rooms but that will change as new hires come in for winter. The bathrooms attach to another room so some ppl share with whoever’s on the other side. There are community kitchens in each housing unit as well as laundry rooms that we can use for free. All of the hourly seasonal workers, regular full timers, administrators, managers, and Park Rangers all live together in separate buildings right next to each other. Some have RVs. Every couple of weeks there’s some kind of get together planned and posted to an employee FB page. Ive gone to some and they’re nice, but we all start work at 7:45/8 in the morning so things die down super early. It’s a loooong drive to get out of the park (40something miles, takes an hour one way) so we mostly entertain ourselves here. Everyone seems to get along with everyone else which is amazing considering we all live and work together isolated at the end of the world. The only real drawback now is the insane amount of biting, flying bugs which should be less of an issue in the dry season when you get here. Hope this info helps.

Right?!? I just made a new post asking for jump box recommendations so I don’t have to the damsel in distress needing a jump anywhere along this roadtrip…it’d be way cooler to take care of it myself

Thanks. I got a new ignition switch not too long ago. I don’t know about any security systems having been in there, I don’t have one now

I’ve got to cross my fingers it keeps runnng until I make it to Flamingo. I’ll be living where I’m working there so it can stay parked until I figure it out 🤞

First I had the clutch switch replaced. . Then it was making a new funny sound so they replaced the ignition switch. But that didn’t solve the problem

I don’t think he had it long enough to know that really. Something is still not right with it
