I work a job Monday through Friday from about 8 AM to 5 PM like most people

I could use some extra money so I applied for a couple part time jobs and I accepted one. It's overnights a couple nights a week and at least one night will be the same day as my other job so I'd be sleeping in short naps for a day or two.

Neither job is too physically exhausting..I thought I could pull it off but my alarms going off in about an hour and I've gotten no sleep this evening. I feel like I'm kidding myself.

Any of you tried something similar?

When I worked at nsa my schedule was M-F 6:00-2:30 then I started a part time job 4 days a week also at the agency from 3:30- til around 8:30. I did that for about two and a half years. The best part about all the money you make working two jobs is that you don't have energy or time to blow it lol.

Word to the wise, if your part time job starts to affect your performance at your full time job, quit the part time job immediately.

Good luck bro

I worked 3 jobs at one time. Basically learned how to powernap while standing up.

It does get easier over time, and soon as you get the opportunity to better your situation, take it. Working multiple jobs should only be temporary (unless you can't keep it in your pants and wind up with a bunch of kids).

I'm up at 330 am get home at 430 and then off to pizza delivery sometimes as late as 1130. Been doing it for 7 months. It gets easier as time goes on. But I'm older (42) so it does every so often take its toll

Yea. Once worked a forty hour week in a classified vault. Then worked weekends selling wrapping paper to Russian tourists. Good pay on weekends.

Yes. Did it in college during the Summers. Main job was 2nd shift, so I took a first shift. After graduating started a service business and worked part time evenings at a different job to make ends meet while my independent contractor business got rolling. Now I work FT days for my own company and have a second career with another side gig. I never can stay busy enough. It keeps me out of trouble. You have to work to eat. Good advice from the person who mentioned the second job negatively impacting your primary job. Good luck.

I don't remember ever having two jobs at the same time. I always had a job when I was going to school, elementary (5th and 6th), middle, high, and college.

Depending on the level of school and the job, it ranged from easy to almost impossible.

Being an involved parent and working, that shit is like 4 jobs.

I work 8am-4pm in office usually and often 1-2 hours from home.

At night I murder old people who cause you to wait thru an extra light in the left turn lane because they suck at driving... ur welcome society.

So Batman dives out the window and saves her, but then what? The joker is still at the party with Harvey dent. How does the joker escape? So many questions.
