  • there aren't more passengers than the available seats
  • the order is being kept by those waiting for their turn
  • the fee for the ride is collected or the tickets are checked
This is usually a summer job, therefore a seasonal one. However if the weather allows it, it can be a year-round job. Because it is a seasonal job, it is best intended for students or even for those who have a hard time finding a job in their field.
