We have always repaired on our own or had a mobile repair come in. We have never asked staff.
In a few parks the "repairman" also lived there but it was a separate business.
Sometimes parks obtain a distinct "personality". For example, some parks are known as "party parks", etc.
Maybe your park has somehow built the expectation that staff will do repairs. It will take a dedicated effort by management to change this "personality," even if they want to.
If management does not wish to change, then you will need to reconsider your continued employment there.
Hope everything works out for you.
I agree with you here, many times we probably have gone and done more then what was needed, and have maybe created or own monster with the regulars. I quess we need to come to an understanding were we just need to draw the line.
Again, it's not a problem trying to help someone in need, it's just when something becomes to involved or is obviously not meant for campground staff to handle, some campers really become so upset that it is unbeleivable.
As a matter of fact, The one I had last evening, I gave a number to a local mobile repairman that may be able to assist him next day; response I got was "really, not until tommorrow" (lol it's 630pm now)Sometimes you can't win.
