Actually they're 137. My math is bad too. Haha.As for the other questions:
- do I get food? No
- what are my duties? Reservations, check-ins, check-outs, breakfast, room and bathroom cleaning, laundry, dishes, dusting, polishing, phone calls, sweeping, mopping, watering flowers, leaf-blowing, etc.
- do I get benefits? No benefits.
- are there other people working other than the girl I mentioned? Just us two, neither with experience in this field.
- what else do I pay for? Phone, internet, car insurance and gas.
- what experience do I have running a b&b? None, but I have been working since I was 13. I started with babysitting every weekend, then when I turned 16 I began getting restaurant jobs, seasonal jobs, etc. I have also worked in a chiropractic office and lived in Tahoe by myself for 6 months and worked and paid for bills. The other lady that works here doesn't know how to cook really...
I must also say that I do not mind spending so much of my week here, I just think the pay is too low for all I am expected to do. I like the work, but the pay is unsatisfactory. I feel like I am putting in a lot more effort in a half a month to only make $230. If a guest pays for two nights in one of our fancier and bigger rooms, it costs about $230 for them..Yikes! CA/SF area is a very expensive place. I can't imagine what the place is like you work in if the bigger, fancier rooms are only $115 per night. Believe me, if those are the rates, your owners are not raking it in.Ashtreemeadow said:I feel like I am putting in a lot more effort in a half a month to only make $230.

My employers notified me and my coworker that it takes 1,000 each month to keep the doors open...
It is in the foothills of the sierra nevadas in Apple hill country. Not in sf.
