part-time work ideas

Recommended Posts

so grad school and a kid have turned out to be very expensive enterprises when combined together, especially in conjunction with financial goals that add up to more than just breaking even every month. i've got a really ambitious budget that involves putting away a substantial amount per month. and for various reasons that's simply not getting done. some of it's frivolous spending, some of it's unavoidable bills (our new insurance is absolute garbage and two quick doctors visits landed us $300 in out-of-pocket medical expenses just like that.)

 

i've been debating picking up some part-time work on the side to try to plug up some of the holes and cover expenses that keep popping up. anybody have thoughts on flexible options? i've tossed around everything from contracting with uber to seeing if i can land a gig bartending in charlotte a night or two a week when i'm down there, or getting on a lunch shift somewhere.

 

i've been slowly re-watching breaking bad too, so i'm also open to doing shady stuff.

I have taken uber many times and you'd be surprised by the people who are driving.

I was talking to the guy driving us home from the airport and he does it a couple nights a week because he son is on atraveling baseball team and needs the extra money.

 

If you want bartending...talk to roaring riot :)

2009 mini cooper clubman. slick ride, if the app lets you see what your options for car type it might work in my favor

 

The app does not but you can also get regular clients.

 

I have the choice between Uberx (reg car) UberXL (suv)and Uber Black (black car). Based on the location of the customer it gets routed to the closest car. They can accept or reject it and then it rolls over to the next closest and so on. (dont reject too many)

No one is going to want to get in the back of a mini. No offense. It may even have to be a sedan to qualify

 

quite possibly, i'll have to do the research and see. it's a clubman, not the regular, so it's got an extra foot and a half of room, which makes a massive difference in legroom and storage capacity.

 

edit: uber requires four-door cars, mine is 2… so that's out

Why is your new insurance "absolute garbage"?

 

to be honest i'm not even sure… my wife recently went to part-time at work because she's in grad school too, and it completely changed the insurance options. we pay for it monthly now instead of having it drafted from her paycheck through work. i haven't checked all the details, i just know the premiums are ungodly.

    • I thought he was from watching him play and also doing his first HC job. I thought he was the real deal  Apparently what happened is Kraft committed to Mayo and I don’t remember the timeline exactly - but Vrabel was unemployed at the same time Belichick was unemployed. They both were fired after the 2023 season.  Kraft hired Mayo. Who was kind of an obvious disaster. He probably already had the deal in place but I will give Kraft credit for not sleeping. With Vrabel out there for 2025 he made the move he needed to make and if it hurt Mayo’s feelings then oh well.  I guess you can tell I am not fond of Kraft but that was a really savvy move. At his age, pretty good. Still has it. 
    • It’s going to feel like a home game for the bills. There are so many of their fans that live down here now, and many of them have never seen Allen play in person since their last visit was 8 years ago. It didn’t matter for the cowboys game, but it might here. I think we likely lose a close one. Probably a questionable flag or two that doesn’t go our way. X factor for Buffalo will be Kincaid and Knox. If we do win it’s because we get ahead and play keep away from Allen. FYI- I have many friends who are Bills fans that are fed up with Beane who we all revere and think is the one that got away. They feel like he was great to land Josh but has done a terrible job of building around him (especially at WR) and rely on him to become super man to win- sounds kind of familiar, like the last time we had a franchise QB.    
    • I always thought of him as an uptight military family dude, didn't know he needs to wash that mouth out with soap lol.
