Anyone here forced to work 2 jobs?

My buddy told me today that he is going to start waiting tables in the evenings and on weekends to make ends meet.

Does the state of the Union have anyone else hurting like this?

 

Nope.

 

there's fucking good money in waiting tables if you get in the right place.

 

Don't you mean, "Anyone here living beyond their means?"

 

hell no........but I would if I had to

 

but you need to be really good at waiting tables to get in the right place.

 

that's for chicks and queers anyway

 

I get enough OT to get by, but I don't live too extravagantly. I've thought about picking up a part time job to build up some funds for buying a new car, but there are seemingly good things happening at my full-time job that make me think I'll be getting a promotion/wage increase

 

He is in sales. Most of the mom and pops that he made the majority of his commission from had to close in the last year or so because they couldn't afford to stay in business.

 

Nope. I just have 1 good one.

 

I just tipped a dude $100 on a $500 tab. This included 2 bottles of good wine and we were there about an hour and a half. I was thinking this dude makes more than me.

 

No you didnt.

 

hope you expensed that shit

 

Of course

 

the only shitty part is having to work every fri/sat night and all the holidays.

 

and having to be nice to people

 

In college school I bartended weekend nights. I banked so much cash cause I was never spending it

 

Are you at a point in your life/career that you can be selective with the work you accept or do you snake every clogged toilet called in?

 

Do you like Huey Lewis and The News?

 

They're OK.
