Tree service full time, tow trucks part time, Been a college student full time, part time now, and snowplowing on my own time. Not uncommon for me to work long hours, during the last snowstorm especially . . . since the night involved tow trucking and since we had to go out on emergency to do storm damaged trees the morning after. ;D

Not much of a personal life though. Oh well, need to make money to stay on top of college costs and such!

If I had to work two jobs I'd quit the first one and find one that payed. I know everyone isn't so lucky but its important to find a field of work that is steady and the wage matches your effort!

I pick side jobs construction or car repairs on the side if I need extra cash. One full time job is enough.

ill throw this out there for u guys needing work. I used too drive truck and run equipment and  work on cars on the side then i got hurt was out o work for a year and a half and a couple of family members actually my sister and mom actually talked me into checking out a company called Arise. Online work from home on the computer company. Way different than anything i ever done honestly did not think i would like it. you need a computer some good internet and a buisness phone line . costs about 35 a month through att for phone line. I actually do like it now been doin it for a year now work for a good cpu company that sells products that start with i   ...hint hint...   make pretty good money too and im home for kids no gas money all that. And i got more time for projects and side work out of my garage cuz im home and pick my hours i work. company im with is 24/7 so work whenever i want really. If your intrested at all its online there are classes you pay for to learn products and such they last about 4 weeks and some do pay back class time. so its about 300 to get started but for me its payed off.  i can give more details as well feel free to hit me up i can sell all those iproducts as well. lol  ++peace

Been somewhat on the search for a 2nd job, but since my first one is as physically demanding as it is, I'm pretty much just looking at counter jobs or easier lol.

Well I have to say that I am one of the fortunate ones to have a GM job.  The downfall to that is I drive an hour and a half one way down to warren.  On a high note my wife is an RN and  makes more than me now!.

I used to carry 2 or more jobs all of the time...once I started focusing more on developing myself in one job, it was tough for a while, but it paid off much more than the income from both jobs.

If I could get a job I would be working it and then a 2nd one. But I have been trying and have not been hired after having more interviews in the past 3 months than I have had in the past 2 years.
I threw in towel last month and apply for disability finely, Dont want it but it will help me out till I can get a job that pays better than SSI.
