Okay, MrFun, really? If you're not going to school, just work 2-3 jobs. With your education, they'll hire you. It'll suck but realistically, you can work 16 hours a day and still get enough sleep.

If it helps, when I was going to school, I worked two jobs. I would total 50 hours a week and had a number of 4.0 semesters and made the dean's list every semester of my college career except 2 semesters (I was actually unemployed one of those semesters so go figure!). Honestly, because of it, I scoff at the idea that it's too hard to go to school and work full-time.

Don't be weak, MrFun. You can do it. And if you're not in school, you have even more time and ability to work multiple jobs.

Hell, the less time you're in the house and more time working, the less your utilities will cost cause you'll never be in the house except to sleep!

It's not much of a life to spend most of it working two jobs. I'd rather find some way to buy more time to look for more gainful employment, where I could possibly be happier and have a life of my own outside of work.

I have done something like what you've described before. I worked in retail part-time, while teaching community college part-time, while working on my thesis.

Much more recently, I worked full-time, while going to school full-time, taking three online non-credit graduate courses. The only reason I was able to take those Library Science courses, is because the Papers of Abraham Lincoln job benefits included full tuition waiver.
