"There are a lot of factors that make Kongen Marina a great place to work. Firstly, Kongen Marina is situated in the Oslo harbour right next to the seafront. The view is beautiful and its an amazing place during warm summer days. Secondly, the work environment at kongen is like no place I have ever worked, they are all really welcoming and are easy to work with. From top management all the way down to the part-time workers people tend to be really happy when they are at work. This is one of the main reasons I always get drawn to Kongen when summer is closing in, and one of the reasons I have been working here for such a long time. Thirdly, at Kongen Marina there are always a lot of fun projects and always something to do. It doesnt matter if you work as a bartender or as an employee at the boat shop, there are no boring days. Some variation in your daily routine might be a welcoming change,
If you are in doubt where to work this summer I would highly recommend Kongen marina. " quote Sigurd Assistant Store Manager

Når alt går rett øst, sett seil til sydligere strøk. Når det ikke gir ønsket effekt, skriv en bok eller tre. Når det ikke hjelper gi boken til en venn. Fortsatt ingen respons ja da er det bare å søk jobb på Kongen Marina.
