    I'm currently a laundry truck driver at Yellowstone National Park. I pick up a loaded trailer of clean linen and deliver to hotels inside the park. My backhaul is dirty laundry that goes to the laundry facility in Gardiner, MT. It's basically a summer working vacation, do to low pay and having to pay for housing and food. I do get to unload next to the most famous geyser in the world and my traffic jams are most likely to be caused by a herd of bison or a grizzle bear on the road. Anyone else have an unusual job they would like to add?

    That would be a dream job. I hit Yellowstone about every year, (sw mt here).
    Gardner is a nice little town. Been there many times.
    A Job like that, i would feel like i was retired rather than working.
    The pay may not be great, but you get to enjoy things most of us dont get to see.

    Dem buffalo really do cause some big traffic jams, had one last year i think it was.. darn thing decided to take a nap on the road. So there we sat..waiting for it to move.

    This was my 3rd year here. It's been fun, but it sure screws up the resume'.

    Popcorn,Candy,oil,butter,toilet paper,Soda syrup and everything else a movie theater uses....
    At least it is dedicated,i know all my stops and have keys to deliver anytime day or night.
    They hate it when i show up during a busy Sunday evening and drop 5 or 6 pallets in the lobby.....lol!

    I can catch a free movie anytime i want but usually i just want to get down the road.

    I sleep at some of them late at night so if i need a bathroom i have the keys.
