One thing that always strikes me, apart from the girls at the local bar, when I leave the city for rural communities is just how tenuous the income potential can be.  Tourist season is a few months long, but it's often the only time we see these places.  Also often the only time the burger joint will have a line-up.

Odds are that burger joint has a corner store attached and a gas pump out front and a small engine repair out back and be careful when you take your salad from the fride 'cause they're next to the live bait.  The staff likely work the grill in summer and the forest the rest of the year and pick up other jobs when other jobs are available.

I have trouble juggling one job.
