What do past employees have to say:
"The Chill Spot was one of the most fun and supportive workplaces I've worked at. From the customers, to coworkers, and Ryan, everyone had a great amount of respect which led to such a fun work and housing environment . Plus, the ice cream is great! Definitely an awesome seasonal experience."
-Sophia, virginia
“Working at The Chill Spot for the summer was an experience I’ll never forget. Ryan is a fantastic boss who really cares about the well-being of his employees. I was able to see wild horses, surf before and after work, and made lifelong friends along the way. The job itself is fun and I honestly forgot I was at work most days (the free ice cream is also a perk). If you decide to work for Ryan, you won’t regret it!”
-Sarah, colorado
