Re: Cape Fear, Harker Island

I am volunteering there in February and March, the ranger seemed very nice on the phone but would like to have some feedback if you have been there. That's kind of surprising to hear. We signed up this past August to work there Jan-Apr. Guess they changed their mind about us. Hope it works for you....468Views0likes0CommentsRe: Information Discussion for Gate Guards

Like a car salesman friend told me once, "There's a butt for every seat." We have been with GGS for over 2 yrs fulltime and are very satisfied here and well taken care of. Everyone needs to be where they are most comfortable and happy with their job. Some folks can not be happy no matter where they are at. Cheers Everyone!! IMO, people who are considering this type of work should be made aware of the experiences of those who have/had worked for these companies. If that conflicts with your experience, then it is what it is. I did not mention any details as to what the instances/experience we had with GGS, so I don't see how that is "badmouthing" the company. "Some folks can not be happy no matter where they are at," has nothing to do with our experience.404Views0likes0CommentsRe: Information Discussion for Gate Guards
Blondie Girl wrote: Why badmouth GGS just because you yourself had a bad experience? Let me see if I understand this correctly - you can say that there are gate guard companies that you would not work for and that's not considered badmouthing? Yet I say I would not choose to work for GGS based on our personal experience and that is considered badmouthing? Give me a break.406Views0likes0CommentsRe: Information Discussion for Gate Guards

There are many other gate guard companies around and some also would be good to work for.... You just have to decide for yourself which company best fits your needs. GGS is not a company I would choose to work for based on our personal experiences. I would strongly suggest and encourage those who are considering the work of a gate guard to do extensive research with respect to the different companies. The gate guard company's support, or lack thereof, is a major factor in one's ability to perform their duties as a gate guard.232Views0likes0CommentsRe: Information Discussion for Gate Guards

They are down about 4 gate guards today, because they took over gates that another company lost.... They're short, too, because they have gate guards leaving them because of intolerable circumstances.225Views0likes0Comments
