It was September 2011 and we had no job to go to in Florida. Then I was struck with an idea....an inspiration? Well, we
had been praying. Why not apply to a national park? Unlike Utah, Florida has only one. So we called their volunteer coordinator. Bob was so excited! because the job he was told about was being an interpretive guide at the formerly secret
Nike Missile Site in the Everglades. The RV site provided was just a mile away in beautiful woodland... so we could bike to the visitor's center. Wow!...with our science background, this
had to be the job. We'd get a uniform and a propane allowance. The job had barely been posted on
http://www.volunteer.gov/gov/ We were told to fill out the online application. We'd already sent in the paperwork to get a background check and an authorization for driving a government vehicle. We needed to take a defensive driving course, provide a driving history (listing all of the vehicles we could drive and our hours on each of them) and a DMV 3-year driving record. There's pages of government paperwork. I can send you a copy, if you'd like. The required driving tests were a bit intimidating.

I think this is a decent article. You make this data fascinating and locks in. You give perusers a great deal to consider and I value that sort of composing. http://govtjobs.careerlogiq.com/rrb-chennai-recruitment-jobs-results/
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind comment. I try to make it "real" for anyone who wants to know what camp hosting is like...although I've gone back to teaching school and do missionary work on the weekends. It's still a great life!
