So… I was promoted again at work and it has come to my attention that my cc derby has been increasing at a rate that far exceeds my ability to pay it off within any reasonable time frame. I was not the only one charging ☹

So, I’m looking for ideas on side jobs. I fix laptops, ipods etc… But that was only for liquor, and it’s hard to make money with time required.

I’m also to cool to work some shtty minimum wage job.  
(unless im able to do work from my day job while “working”)

I already know I suck for asking such a question here, but life is a bitchand I’m looking to buy a helmet.

I do floor work for some businesses around wny on the weekends. It only comes around like once every 6 months, but it is nice to get a little extra cash. I am in the process of gathering more equipment, picking up a utility van and hoping putting together a small crew to manage the contracts that I have aquired.

Maybe you could go to the sperm bank in your spare time? :wackit:

What the fuck? Are you drunk now? I can’t understand you but I think it has to do with charging your credit card too often by someone other than you? There’s your problem right there.

I ref on the weekends for fun money. I don’t need the cash but it is something I really like to do and it keeps me from dipping in my bank account as often. Find something you like to do so that the extra time spent doing it on top of your normal gig isn’t too excruciating.

It was more of a suggestion for people with computer skills trying to make extra cash.

You need to make sure you setup the scope of work properly or the side work turns into never ending calls and hell.

this.

honestly, when my day gig wasn’t cutting it in the past I REALLY enjoyed being a valet for Onyx’s company…I’d work 2 nights a week or so parking cars and sometimes come home with a real decent wad of tips when working a fancy restaurant. Plus I got to drive some insane cars I’d otherwise never have even sat in.

I have quite a few friends that bring in an extra $100-200 a week delivering pizzas one or two nights a week, so that’s an easy gig too.

beyond that, your only other option is if you have a great skill that people are willing to pay good money for your services and wait for you to have the time to provide it.

I’m always trying to make more money. Parking cars with Josh wasn’t a bad gig. Try becoming a pimp.
