Gold Rush’s Parker Schnabel Says Dealing With People Is The Hardest Part Of His Job – Looper

Who you work with can make all the difference. In many jobs, employees are likely to see their co-workers as much as their family, if not more. And if there’s a clash of personalities or interpersonal conflicts, all of that can make a job more challenging. Now try imagining that within the rough and tumble jobs of “Gold Rush,” and it’s easy to see why Parker Schnabel would consider people the most difficult part of his job. Specifically, as he said on Reddit, dealing with people for long hours is the hardest.

In a 2016 interview with Maxim, Schnabel expanded a bit on this when he was asked what the toughest part of running a mining business at a young age was. “The hardest part was probably learning how to put myself in other people’s shoes and learning how to deal with landlords, suppliers, and most importantly, our employees,” Schnabel said to Maxim. Throughout the seasons of “Gold Rush,” fans have witnessed Schnabel trying to deal with the rest of the cast and crew of “Gold Rush.” And unfortunately, it hasn’t always ended in the best way. Schnabel has been involved in some of the biggest fights on “Gold Rush.” Some of those battles have included conflicts with some of his employees. Those onscreen incidents, however, did make for some explosive reality TV moments.
