This summer of camp hosting has been absolutely fantastic!

I am very happy in my position that has seen a growth of responsibility. This week, I’m covering for the manager for three days and will have the run of the park, so to speak, for two of those days while the owner is also away. It’s great to be trusted and appreciated. The shifts this week are long, nine hours, but there are so many little things to do that the time goes by very quickly. I have some desk work to do, like bookkeeping and updating the computer system, that gives me a moment to breathe after frantic running around and I also have to coordinate (I refuse to use the word ‘manage’!) the motel housekeeping staff. It’s a full plate, but not overwhelming, and at the end of the day I know that a day’s worth of work was done.
