Gotta go where the jobs are.
Doesn't mean you have to live there.
Not gong to live there, but its a 3 hour drive one way if I get the job. In the long run it would be cheaper to stay in the RV during the week and home on the weekend. Less wear and tear on the truck/car/motorcycle and myself for that matter. I'd scoot to work on Monday morning, staying in the RV till heading home after work on Friday.

Again it all depends on if I get the job. Could hear from the one n San Antonio first.

Plus it is n the corpus side of houston so it's less travel than staying say in the woodlands or something .
+1 Thats a nice area. I live in in the Canyon Gate community across 99 from Greatwood. It is a really safe and nice neighborhood. Lost of stuff right around it. Nice Krogers, Randalls, HEB, and at 762 there is a tun of new stuff coming in. 59 Most days runs really well. I work in the Galleria 20 miles door to door and my commute most days is 30 minutes. The ONLY thing I don't like is the train noise. There are some railroad tracks about 1 mile south and when they blow their horn at the crossings it irritates me for some reaon. It's not loud just grating...

What part of town is the job ?

A gentleman I hired a bit back stayed in his travel trailer for 6 months or so. We work in the Med Center. I believe he stayed in a park a few miles south . PM me if that's the area. I'll ask and let you know.

TDL and CHL have RV resort for address. You can have a separate mailing address for TDL and CHL. We have P.O. Box for mailing address.

Not sure yet. Still waiting to hear back after applying. I was just searching for possible places to stay in case I get the "we need you here in 3 days."

If you could hammer down an address, it would be helpful. Your stay is going to be dependent on Houston traffic.
