Work in the alps
Hey ppl
just found this newsgroup, and it seems to me like there are mostly american users here... but anyway, if there are any european guys here, maybe you can help me... My friends are going to St. Anton in late november to work there... my problem is that I have a job contract at home(sweden) until 23 dec... is it possible/easy to find work that late? and find a place to live... Some people I've spoken to says to go after newyears, as many people are let go after the holidays... Any experience and/or tips? Thanks //Fish |

As far as I can tell, there are very few Americans here; all the regulars are, I think, European. Adrian -- Adrian Shaw ais@ Adran Cyfrifiadureg, Prifysgol Cymru, aber.

I wouldnt go on the 24th Dec. Everything is shut & the Austrians wont
appreciate you knocking on there doors asking for work. It is best left till after New Year. The Hirers chuck out all the dead wood employees . Even late November is late for St Anton . There are alot of regular return SkiBums who scoop up the good jobs , cheap apartments ( that wil be yor bigggest problem) . I know quite a few locals who hire (good jobs.pay & accom) St Anton but sorry im not going to tell anyone here :-) "Fishstick" wrote in message ...

I think I'll follow your advice, and spend the holidays at home... and leave early in january... I know quite a few locals who hire (good jobs.pay & accom) St Anton but sorry im not going to tell anyone here :-) Some of us are lucky I understand why you don't want to post contacts here.. those poor people would get thousands of calls |
