Meeting with Randy Barrows, Head Snowmaker


During the first week at Mount Snow the group went to the snow manager named Randy. He taught them about how the lifts have a diesel backup engine. He works the whole year summer through winter. His employees work twelve hour shifts starting at 7 am and end at 7 pm which is longer than most other jobs which usually last 8 hours. He has two hundred and fifty three. Each one costs one thousand dollars an hour running them with an hour if they're all on its a total of two hundred fifty-three thousand dollars an hour so if they have them on for 24 hours it will costs over six million dollars(six million seventy-two thousand).To put that in prospective u could get over twenty thousand Iphone 6+s. He has twenty people working for him and they all work 12 hour shifts.And the finale piece of info is that the computer he uses costs one hundred eighty thousand dollars.
