The job of a lifeguard may seem simple, but this position was much more tedious in terms of maintaining the pool than I had anticipated. I was more than happy to do the cleaning managing required amongst the team of lifeguards in an effort to all collectively get the job done, but there were times where the cleaning felt unneccsary and simply a means to keep the staff looking busy to the clients. On the one hand, I completely understand and value the prestige that comes with being a part of a luxury country club staff, I did feel at times a little overworked, as our shifts were quite long. However as mentioned if we wanted or need to leave early, my manager was sure to accommodate to the circumstances of each individual, which I greatly appreciated.
