    Dude, use your degree(s). Why pay for all that and not use it?
    GIS is your money spot. Get into it however you can. Hell, land surveyor can get you in on the ground floor at least and dazzle em with some GIS skills.

    I have no idea why you would want to work in a shop after that much school. But hey, I got old I guess.

    According to the truckee tahoe unified school district website they pay $150 per day for a short term sub. That sounds like the perfect ski bum job. I don't know how they do it now but in the old days they called you early the morning they needed you to teach. You could accept or reject right then. Dry spell = accept... Powder day = reject... With a Masters you should be able to get a temporary credential.
    Don't wait to the last minute...

    ...down by the river.

    This is a good example of women having the edge on men in these situations. If AKPM were a chick, he could earn a g-string full of money at a local strip joint, ski all day, and only work from 9-1 each night with Monday's off. Instead, he's either gonna bash his thumbs in working construction, or get pencils thrown at him by school kids all the while making less money.

    Agreed. I think AKPM has a bright future in Reno's sex work marketplace.

    Rec centers with pools have shower facilities.

    U can also wait tables at night at a higher end restaurant (perhaps one where the staff get naked). Lie on your resume if you need about previous experience. Suggest the lies involve work at places where the future employer will not check (ie defunct restaurants or foreign locations).

    Who says he can't do this? The Castro's only a few hours drive from Reno / Tahoe.

    FWIW, Facebook has a Truckee/Tahoe Jobs group. There are pretty regular posts there.

    In any case, if you're ever really in this situation make sure you at least bargain in a couple of fluffers.

    Do you just wanna live in Tahoe for a season, is that what's going on here?
    Why do you wanna do it in a van? We're adults now.
    No longer stuck.

    Yeah. Wasted time on car forums for a while. Been working for Otto Parts for 7 years, so if I posted during the day he knows for sure that I'm wasting time on the ski-interwebs. Mostly back for the NSFW threads. Two new knees since I last wasted a lot of time here.

    Thanks, it wasn't out of my way at all.

    AKPM, what about working on one of those crab boats we see on TV? Those dudes seem to make good $.

    To get a full share you generally have to be a tender as well, which doesn't jive with my current summer job of running a salmon boat. Also fuck that shit, I'm trying to spend the winter around people.

    And I'm guessing these are the type of lenders who will break your legs since we're talking commercial fishing?
