    Default How many jobs and how many hours?

    As I started my first real day of work at my second job I got to wondering how many jobs at once is normal? I right now have two, one is about 8 hours a week and the other is 20. I have had as many as four with hours ranging from 10 to 40 a piece. Any other working stiffs out there?

    well doing the math i work 40hrs one week and 46 the next on my two week pay scale... but no over time. and hte ass hat in charge of this eastern european mafia money laundering front is taking out taxes when i never filled out a W2. So FRAUD. deported kind of fraud for pocketing my pay check which means i'm not getting $8 but more like $6.

    i could never have more than one job at a time. heck i can hardly have one real job for more than 6 months at a time. as it's looking now this one is over the 29th. just in time for dragon con

    Keiko.. don't you count being ein famous model und performer within der Adultindustrie as job 3?

    IRS always counts muppets like me as self-employed, so doing 20 different things a week in two or three different countries still counts as one job. At least they only know about the checks banked inside the border! I did once work a few weeks entirely for beer and buffalo wings though. Reasonable time, reasonable rates.. pas parfait, mais c'est moi.

    (yes, I'm having language issues today....)

    according to the general public being a modle/adult film star doesn't count as a real job. but hte pay/hrs/benefit scale is WAY better.

    I've held down as many as 4 part time and 1 part time job at a time. It depends on what I need at the time. These days I'm a 40 hour a week orifice er office drone.

    Honey, anything where you seem to be enjoying yourself isn't "a real job" to the ones stuck in a cube for 8 hours a day. Musicians, actors, artists, writers, Siegfried & Roy..

    (er, excepting the whole mauly-teethy-furry-bloody part...)

    It's jealousy plain and simple, unless that cube is owned by the IRS, in which case every time you smile they're looking for 20% of your lower lip.

    My standard reply's always been

    "Of course it's not a real job. It's better than that"

    I'll be pulling full time plus with school and related activities. I enjoy it, though. I don't see myself working full time after I'm out. I'll take on international, animal, and other paying gigs as they come. To do any one thing full time, it'd have to have meaning beyond the cash.
