    We are on our first gate with j&G. It will be two months july 10th. We like it. We do 6 hour shifts so we aren't spending to long out i nthe heat. We have shade tent and fans to keep cool. We are on a dirt road 5 miles fro the main road. Lots of dust. The wirst think is that the closest grocery store is over an hour away. We only go once every two to three weeks.

      Everyone at the the worksite and company was very nice and helpful that is for sure. I think for us we tended to work together a lot so unless we were sleeping we really were both on shift so it didn't really matter how many hours technically we were "on" but everyone definitely has to find what works for them. Glad it is working out for you guys. That does stink about the distance to the store, that was what we were afraid of so we stocked up but then ended up being close to a store.. you just never know..

    Hi Joel and Tanya! Sorry it took me so long to watch your video. I was busy catching up with Dustin and Leslie’s challenges on Rv Unplugged. Their team is red so I’m rooting for them. Thank you for the tips on gate guarding. I did something similar with a friend I worked with she was a guard at construction site. It was her second job. We were up all night. Until the crew came in and they made noice with the trucks. And the equipment so I hear you on the noice. I don’t think that it be good for me on that one. I’m wanting to know what’s next for your adventure. I’m wiling to join you. You both are funny to watch. How’s your dog? Is he liking that you are done with the gate guarding job you had? Happy Father’s Day Joel! Hope you had a great day today. Have a great week and see you both soon!

      Thanks as always following our journey. Both our dogs, but especially Lucy, are glad to be done with the constant noise and lack of area for them to explore. Thank you for the Father's Day wishes, it was a nice relaxing day. Safe travels!

    Thanks for the details on this. We've thrown this option around, but I think like you, it's probably not for us.🔆🐾

      We wanted to put the information out there of what it was like for US, now everyone's experience will be different. We would say keep it on the back burner and if the right situation comes up then it was meant to be.

    Hey guy's, I think you’ve talked us out of the guard gate job as an option😏

      We are glad that we tried it and like we said we won't say it's out of the question moving forward, we would just be pickier on the job assignment. Safe travels!

    A couple of questions...what is the average pay per day? How far did you have to go for groceries (I assume only 1 person went). They provided power, what about propane? Did you need anything (like a macerater) to pump your tanks? Laundry? Length of time for the job (min commitment or by the month or pay period). Thanks

    • @thisisouradventure
      @thisisouradventure 2 місяці тому

      Let us just say that every company and every job site can be different... With that being said we were paid $200 per day. We were lucky and the Walmart was only about 10 minutes away (there are definitely more job assignments that are not close to groceries, so we were lucky), and yes only one of us could only leave at a time. They provided water, a generator with fuel and dump (basically everything you would get at a campground), no propane. We didn't need anything special to dump. There wasn't any laundry and crazy enough we didn't do laundry the entire time we were there but if we were there any longer we would have had to go find a laundromat. We were there three weeks but every job is different. The companies will work with you and your availability. They usually ask for a flexible availability of at least a month (since you don't always get a job right away). The company we worked for paid biweekly. Thanks for following our journey.

    Glad you survived the gate guarding job! At least you can say you made it half way through. You seem to be much happier and Jess sweater if there’s such a word lol! Hopefully something better might come along. I will hope for the best for you both. Safe travels and see you soon! Have a great week. And weekend.

      We survived and like we said it wasn't awful it just wasn't for us. And maybe we give it another go for a different type of gate in the future... we will have to see. As always thanks for following along on our journey. Take care!

      There was definitely an adjustment period and it wasn't exactly what we thought it would be but it was an experience.. who knows we might try a different type of gate at some point... you never know. Thanks for following along on our crazy adventures!
