It's also quite a bit cheaper than Target and some of the other big ones. ($40/day cheaper!)

Wouldn't work for me (food wise), but don't the companies handle much of the cost for workers?

Too bad I'm not up there in Williston....I would pass on the cholate but would say hi.

They still do the walmart down here in Dickinson...I see plugin poles set up even...have to check and see what those are for. Yeah small trailers are hooked up to them even and guys living in them...maybe employees. But there are guys in the lot living.

I go somewhere else...has TV and shower....for $8 a shower..

Yes, the pay is accurate (Reg 40hrs/$10, OT 44hrs/$15) and you don't pay for housing, food, gym, satellite tv, wifi or anything(money in the bank). It's a good place to be with the winter freeze around the corner.

SoCal just curious what area you were at in California? I live in CA (always have) and so want to leave. Tired of the high cost of living here. Makes me sick when I look on Craigslist and see apartments similar to mine that are out of state for $500+ cheaper than that I pay here.

Have enjoyed reading your journey on here. Gives me some hope that I can maybe do something similar someday.

So Cal,
All right, you've been there for what, 7 or 8 months now? Inquiring minds would like to know;
1. What are you doing now?
2. Have you received any promotions while there?
3. Are with the same company that you started with when you arrived?
4. Overall, what's different now than when you started your adventure?
5. Finally, are the mosquito's as huge as has been rumored?

Talk at you later!
