People don't "count" on seasonal jobs as much as they do full-time ones. It's the nature of the business. If you can't work at the track you go to another sporting venue or similar job elsewhere. None of them take advanced degrees. Trainers and actual on-track help are another story, but I could not care less about the salaried employees. Most of us would work their jobs for half the pay.
