Hello;
I am new on this website, and am pondering my future employment. Due to my current jobs and the amount I make iam attempting to find a singular job that will cover my family's living, as it is I'm working three jobs two being full time as well as going to school full-time in a very strict field of study. This whole no sleep makes for a completely exhausting experience. I am wondering how if anyone was ever in this situation how they managed and how they turned the three jobs into a singular well paying job.
Well my friend it's sounds like you have a lot on your plate. Stay positive and don't give up on your goal ,school can definitely give you a bigger and better opportunity to make more money. And most of all just make it happen! You can do it my friend!!!!!!!!!
hey, just thought of something as well..i don't know family dynamics--is there a family member yall could live with for a little while and help out with bills and them help with the baby? or live somewhere with a roommate that does same thing?? I know some families are closer than others.
Dear Zachary, I admire your work ethic, but too much of anything is not a good thing. What kind of work do you most want to do? I don't know if u have ever tried sales?..but you can often work less hours when you also work on sales commissions. I dont recommend straight commission-only jobs..unless you are certain that you can make enough sales. Straight commission sales jobs often pay high commissions.
I completely understand! I was a single mom, 4 jobs (2 full time), full time MBA program for Accounting. It was well worth it!!! I promise!
Eliminate the job that cost the most distance, stress; pays least-- then reexamine P/T school-- unless financial aid is an issue. Finally-- balance the hours of the other II jobs (pay and hours). You'll burn-out -- eventually w/out 5 hours sleep a day. Pierre L, USMC, USCG
Hi Zachary,
You look young and ready for great things. God is pushing you to look at yourself and discover your true gifts so you can be rewarded for them. 3 jobs for hourly will always be less than one career commitment salary job. Get a figure in mind like 50k a year to start and look inside at what you do well and how you can help people. Watch this video and look at the ones to the left. Read books like Think and Grow Rich. I find listening to them in the morning while I get ready to seize the day fills my mind with winning prosperous thoughts. I wish you great success. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlluSzNDDUM
Pet-sit/pet care jobs for folks temporarily leaving town pay fairly well with minimal effort, and you can study at the same time too. My sister in OR pet-sits, house-sits, horse-sits, etc.
Hey be patient take it a day at a time things will work out believe and have faith trust yourself and your decisions
is your wife working?? see if you only had one job if you could qualify for assistance? or have you thought of working opposite shifts if you cant afford daycare and don't qualify for assistance. I know it would be a sucky time, but at least temporary and relieves you from bringing in all the money. Even if she just worked a part time job (again assuming that she is not working) would help. Some money coming in is better than none. I don't know where yall live or how old your child is, but up to age 4 the baby would qualify for wic and you might see about food stamps? I know some people apply for student loans and basically live off of those and a part time job, but that is normally before kids. I would look at where you can cut costs....cable?, get cheaper insurance or drop down to just liability for a bit?, maybe move to cheaper place? etc?? You look young, I am one that has been working since 16 so I tell people to apply for everything that they can...the worst they can say is NO. If your not married yet, i'd definitely have her go down and apply for whatever she can get...good luck- it will be worth it before you know it....time fies.
