I disagree. It all depends on a few things...perspective being the most important. If you have never lived in a shared environment before, or ever worked a seasonal job or national park job, yes, it will require some adjustment. I am actually returning to the South Rim very soon...which is proof that it doesn't suck, at least to me...lol. Granted, everyone is different. I'll be returning to the cook position I had at the El Tovar. I'm really looking forward to it.

Why can't everyone just stand next to the bed and stare down at someone all night to scare them off like normal people do?

Wow, you guys are great. I want to spend a season at the Grand Canyon, but you are saying skip the South Rim? do the North Rim....? Are the women's dorms as bad as the mens? Any info is much appreciated.

I like that. "Hey, I see you got a pretty cool roommate there. I'll trade you...lemme see...ok, two cartons of smokes, four Maxims and a box of HO-HO's that my mom sent me for him. I'll also mend your sleeping bag and pick up two shifts for you if you throw in his leash and collar."

:-P
