ziasudraSo, remember how I resolved last semester that I'm not going to end yet another semester by stressing myself out with two jobs? Well.
Got a call today and was offered another month-long gig at a publisher. This time it'll be production instead of copyediting, but it's with the same company, so I kind of know what to expect. Pay is good—suffice to say that it's more than 4 times what I would have earned back in my teenaged McDonald's job. But same as before, I'd have to cut back on my kiddies job at the school and I'll work myself right into the busiest part of the semester, with a final paper and thesis progress looming over my head.
I'm also offered an opportunity to work extra hours with the school over the next few weeks. Shifts are flexible, and the extra work carries into the weekend. I signed up for this before I got the call from the publisher. So if I take the temp job and the extra work, it'll be straight working from weekday to weekend. Hmm.
So, two jobs? Three jobs? Good idea? Bad idea?
