I was wondering. Has anyone got any experience of working on a holiday camp or the such like?
I have the chance to work for Butlins and i'm a bit :chin: about it. Could do with hearing someone else's experiences!

Thats my only advice.
but butlins is supposed to be amazing, i mean just look at all the famous people that have come out of it. Have you been offered a place? or just an audition?
oooo it's nothing exciting like that!lol. Just general bar work, maybe in the nursery there etc. It's a live in job, was just hoping someone may have done similar or know someone who did?
Don't wanna accept the job, move there and find out it's hell on earth.lol.
It can go either two ways, you'll love it make lots and lots of friends and never want to leave (a lot of people dont) or you'll feel like a fish out of water and kinda hate it and leave sharpish.
It depends if you can cope with a mega claustrophobic environment, think working/eating/sleeping/partying all on site and only socialising with other workers.
I've just graduated, can't get a job in my chosen area so thought this would be a good stop gap for a while. But i don't want to go down there, make a complete arse of myself by coming back in like two days but then again, don't want to miss out on something that could be a real laugh and lets face it, its the best time to be doing something like it.
arghhhhhhhhh. Does anyone want to make the decision for me?
Thanks for the reply though!
Which one are you thinking of going to?
