Interesting thread. My son was recently hired as a salesman by the largest RV dealer in the area. Before taking the job he checked with his FIL who happened to know the dealership pretty well. Son says they roll a fair amount of iron off the lot, mainly the smaller tow-behinds, but also a few of the class A units. Unfortunately for him, most of the sales go to the guys who have been there and have both experience in the business and lots of contacts, but he gets by. So....probably like most things related to the economy, RV sales vary by regions.
I expect son will find another job before the summer sales drop off, as the boss there told him they always do.
Academic football.....now there's a whole other, very contentious thread! I've been at/worked at three major football universities. The football coaches have always been paid more than even the most productive faculty members or administrators....isn't that the way it is suppoosed to be? Selling those TV rights is way more lucrative than curing cancer. I once interviewed for a job at the University of Georgia. I knew the guy I was interviewing with was really powerful when I learned his parking spot was reserved even during home games!
