Are you the guy standing next to everyone as they load, or are you sitting up in a little booth pressing buttons?
I did it last year at Kirkwood in Tahoe and Arapahoe Basin in Colorado. I liked Summit County, but the cost of living is way less in Salt Lake and the skiing is better. I do both jobs, and shovel snow, etc. You get moved around. I enjoy the work because I hate going to a gym to exercise. Working outdoors is enjoyable and healthy. The benefit is the ski pass. I work 4 days, ski the other three. There are lots of older people who are semi retired that will work a couple days a week just for the ski pass.
what are your accommodations like?
