Life in the Hole

So, the last time I blogged I had only been in Jackson, WY for a day. Now it has been a week and a half and I guess a few things are different. I now have a better idea of what my day-to-day job will be. I am the Front of the House supervisor, which means that I make sure the cashiers aren't stealing, that the dining room stays clean, and that the coffee stays hot. So far, about half of the people who work for me are from South America. They are university students though, so they know decent English. So mostly I explain what needs to be done to the foreign workers. We have not been busy yet though, so mostly I just doof around for 10 hours.

If you are planning on visiting Jackson Hole and eating where I work, I must warn you, the food is ridiculously expensive and of poor quality. An example would be $10 for a cheesburger. And no, you don't get fries or a drink with that. Or $30 for a whole pizza. I find it hard to believe that anyone eats there at all. Of course it is a ski resort and all of them do the same thing, so I guess it is to be expected.

All in all I guess so far it is a pretty okay job. I get to ski for free and the people here are pretty nice. There are some weirdos though, same as anywhere. Like the dishwasher guy who is a quarter retarded and thinks he is a gangsta rapper. He's white and I'm pretty sure was born a crack baby, so his rhymes ain't that great, but he seems to think he's going to cut an album. I wish him luck.
