Your replies are unfortunate. The wages and hours may not be for you personally, but I see no reason to denigrate any offer of employment during times like these.

 

We are not a city entitiy, we are a seasonally operational private company and are looking to hire in people at an affordable starting wage with the possablility of increase after a short time.

 

I'll leave the link up this weekend then I'll take it down. I'd realy like to extend this job to someone in the cycling community in need of work.

What is unfortunate is employers like yourself taking ADVANTAGE of the lousy job market by offering such a paltry wage fully aware of peoples desperation.

Hi Amber,

 

  The current position requires full time hours but we will be hiring up to 60 additional part-time employees in the next two months for rental assistants, tour guides and shift managers. We're also looking to hire budding bike mechanics who will train under our master mechanic for the summer. Please feel free to send your resume and which job may interest you to the e-mail address in the above posting.

Thanks!

9 an hour is better than an unpaid internship or volunteer only position. Is this any less than a bike shop employee starts at?

Hi Mark-

Thanks for posting the hours! J.

Yes it's less, but not by much.  I can tell you with certainty that Kozy's and Play It Again Sports start non-manager mechanics at $10-12/hr.
