sent an email to the GM and asked for some clarification and this is his reply:
The $480 per month is part of your entire compensation package. It is not based per paycheck. This would include 3 meals per day, 7 days a week and the RV spot. Depending on the number of paydays that are in that particular month, there would be a deduction of $240 per pay check (less if there were 3 paydays). Total Deduction between you and your wife: June $960 July $960 August $960 September $960, etc. Our compensation package is similar to those of Yellowstone, Glacier, Teton, etc. We actually charge less than most. I’m sorry if you feel that this is excessive. We have many work campers that work for us and the majority of them have returned for many years.
Frankly I do think this is excessive since I really wouldn't see us partaking of 3 meals per day in their cafeteria. Doing the math, working 40 hours per week each at their proposed pay rate subtract the taxes and the "fees" and we would clear just over $4.00 per hour each! What a disappointment, and to think they say "majority of them have returned for many years".
