Second Job Ideas (I need 'em) |
|
I desperately need an evening/weekend job to supplement my income. I'd rather not go the fast food/minimum wage route. Anyone have any other ideas? I do admin work during the day.
Democrats know everything!

1. Become a chocolatier on the web. |
|
Your house would smell terrific and chocolate freaks will pay big bucks for their next hit.

2. Consider going to school instead to earn another degree |
|
You think you can't afford it, but there are loans available, and loan-repayment programs if you go into some fields.
Spend your extra time getting another degree, that ultimately would land you a better-paying job in a more secure field. A possibility?

3. try a hotel for banquet servers |
|
it's foodservice, but its much easier than actual waiting of tables, and usually pays pretty good. I did it through college and after, it paid about 10-12 an hour. weekends are in demand.

4. I'm P/T at a Barnes & Noble |
|
Pay is not great to begin with if you have no retail experience (like me.) But it's improved to reasonable after a couple of good reviews.
But you get a VERY healthy discount on books and CDs. And, if you need it they offer health coverage for part-timers (and 401-K).
Plus they contribute heavily to the Dems. :thumbsup:

I know people who make their entire living tending bar two or three nights a week. If you can swing a Friday or Saturday night gig in even a modestly popular spot, you could conceivably do $200 a night or better in tips alone.
