A year of travel: 2013
Experience with an agency: Positive
An extremely positive experience. I applied for the program at the end of March and everything was done on time, so I started working on the first of June. 🙂 Now I'm already collecting papers for next year, again with the same agency.
Location: Delaware, Fenwick Island
Experience with finding additional work: Neutral
I personally have not had to look for another job, but additional work can be found very easily in both Fenwick Island and Ocean City, the neighboring town. The place is extremely safe and the locals are pleasant, everything you need can be found on foot, and the beaches are 10 to 15 minutes from most accommodations. There aren't too many places to go out, but the few that are there are extremely interesting, and they host weekly parties for W&T students. Also, the first or second week of September is Bike Week in Ocean City, which is one of the largest gatherings of bikers in the US.
Business: customer service and relationships, Sunsations
Experience with employer: Neutral
Employer Description: Why neutral? Well, the man is simply not pleasant, but as long as you adapt and realize that you only need to talk to customers, work at the cash register or fold shirts, which is really not difficult, everything will be OK. A yellow T-shirt is worn, which can be obtained there. It is possible to make an agreement with him and have a large number of hours per week and then work only one job. It pays wages regularly, fortnightly. He does not pay 'overtime' more, 1.5, but the regular price, which is again sufficient.
