I have been on the road in my little 1986 Toyota New Horizon for the past 6 months. Money has been running a little low so I thought I would try workamping this 2013 season. Amazon hires workampers and so I applied and got the job. (they hire husband and wife as well as singles). They pay $11 plus the campsite--they are still hiring if anyone is looking for a job. I am at an R.V. park and I am the smallest rig out here. It is really kind of fun. Which R.V. are you in someone will ask--I am in the little guy. Oh that one! Your the only small one here. I found a campsite on the edge/end of row right near the front. So I do not have that walled in feeling with 40 footers parked on either side of me. It is strange being the smallest rig around! Oh the joy of driving an older R.V. Murphey's law does take it's toll. So far this year, my propane tank needs to be replaced, the converter went out, the water tank won't hold water, I parked the rig at my sisters house under a tree and when I left to go to work for Amazon I pulled out and a branch caught the edge of the large vent. I arrived at my destination to find daylight over the bed area. I know what I will be doing with the money that is earned this season. But I have learned to improvise until the money comes in... I have also started a travel blog if anyone wants to follow me in my little r.v.: http://ajoyfultraveler.wordpress.com Workamping is a great way to earn money while you are on the road. How many of you out there are Full timing in your little guys?

Anyone going to Campbellsville KY for the seasonal gig with Amazon? I checked into it earlier this year, and they hired me on, starting next month. Got my RV site reserved and I'm heading out in a couple of days. If anyone is working or has worked this gig, let me know. I'm curious about what exactly goes on. The hard work isn't the issue, but I am curious about the work conditions, how they treat their temp help, etc. Any info would be great. Edit: punctuation (geez)
