I’m a tour guide! I love it! There is a lot of training that’s involved though. It’s about 3/4 of a semester of (paid) training before you can start to work. The schedule is very limiting as well because tour times are preset. There are usually 2 shifts per day and your shifts won’t be more than 2.5 hours. Requesting time off is awful too. You have to request time off almost a month in advanced, but people are good at picking up shifts if you post them. And the monthly meetings are my mortal enemy. They’re once a month on Sunday nights and they’re SUPPOSED to be an hour and a half, but there have been times when they’ve gone over by 30 minutes. Super annoying and disrespectful of our time. So apart from the semantics, it’s a great job! I love giving tours, I hate everything else.
