  • I'm working in Glacier National Park for the summer and I just wanted to do a quick tour of my room in employee housing. If you are considering doing seasonal work this is the type and size room you can expect to live in. And honestly in most cases you will have a roommate like I do. But it's all good if you can handle it.

    Reminds me of living in the dorms in college. Minimalism at its best. 😀

      It definitely teaches you to live simple and with less stuff. I like that about it.

  • @thejourney11111

    Is this employee cabin in East Glacier? I wonder if that's where I may stay if I work at Glacier Park Lodge, or is it only for people who work at St.Mary? Definitely something I'll ask in my interview. Thanks for the inside content!

    Missed you. Glad to see you're back and living your dream (and mine). I realize you have very minimal belongings but, how do you transport them. I think you don't have a car, right? It doesn't look like it could all fit on an airplane or bus, etc. Maybe it does. Just wondering. What kind of work are you doing there this summer? It looks like a dream to me! We are cleaning out our guest room today. It's the start of our house sweeping to get ready for a more minimalist lifestyle! And once we do that, we'll be trying to get some kind of RV so we can do what you're doing. We have a dog, so we will have to stay in an RV which is fine with me!!! Enjoy your summer and keep us up on what's going on.

    • @TimothyWard
      @TimothyWard  Před 6 lety +1

      All my possessions fit into two suitcases so I can take them on a plane, bus, or train. This summer I am a houseman for a hotel. I basically strip the dirty linens and trash out of hotel rooms so the housekeepers can clean them. It's super easy lol

    Hey Tim, it's great to see you! I might follow in your seasonal work footsteps. Do you happen to know if there is seasonal or regular work in the areas of photography, videography, social media or marketing at the type of places you work at?
    I used to do seasonal work in the press lounge of an annual film festival back when I lived in NYC for several years in a row. And I've worked a few (unpaid) one day event gigs as well back then.

    • @TimothyWard

  • @PassportBrosAndBlondeManWeaves

    Can I ask about frequent trips into town like if you need to go to Walmart how often do they have buses or someone that drives into town or do you just have to order stuff on line

    • @TimothyWard
      @TimothyWard  Před 6 lety

      It depends on the location and company you work for. Some companies have frequent employee shuttles, others go once a week or less. Some have no shuttles into town at all. I suggest asking at the initial interview.

  • @Norvelle
    @Norvelle Před 4 lety

    Can i ask though, is there like a company shuttle or bus service that pick and drop offs to the job location or how do you back& forth to work?

    • @TimothyWard
      @TimothyWard  Před 4 lety

      When you first arrive there is typically a shuttle that will take you from the train station/airport to your job location. Once you are on the job site most people walk back and forth from employee housing to the job.

    • @TimothyWard
      @TimothyWard  Před 3 lety +2

      I don't think there is a rule against you bringing your own mini fridge. The phone service was pretty poor except for one carrier, I think it was Verizon. But you would have to double check with HR. But there is wifi so worse case scenario you can stay in contact with family over the net.
