of course ur right.... the economy is certainly changing things for all aspects of the future and its difficult to predict. did u ever serve there? im wondering if this restaurant is nice and 'usually' busy in the summer or how many experienced servers they have working.
Working at old faithful location is going to be busy everybody that goes to Yellowstone visits the old faithful location to some extent at least to see old faithful. The Inn is the busiest since that is the second thing people want to do after they see old faithful go off. The snowlodge(Cook '06) is a casual dining restaurant full modern kitchen well laid out and funtional for both front and back of the house. The dining room is very nice don't know how many it seats but it kept 5 to 6 servers running all night. Money I don't know but to answer your question about being busy yah it will probably be busy as for the amount of experienced servers it depends but when I was there we had a handful or so. But as for any place you will work at you will have your 'A' team and 'B' team.
