Are there any good paying weekend research/lab jobs in Austin Texas? Because I’m getting $23/hr as a research coordinator and know for a fact I’m being under paid lol all because I am “new to research” yet I have a bachelors is biology and have done research projects in school and have plenty of other work experience…. Anyways though, back to my question I need a side job to be able to afford ALL of my bills 🙂

You can try getting a weekend retail job or some other side hustle going. Be very careful not to work for a competitor because Texas is an "at-will" state and your current employer will find it to be a problem.

If you believe you are being underpaid, you can always start a job search. The job market is still pretty tight and workers have the upper hand.

Entry-level positions here in CA are offering $45-65k/year for Science positions. From what I can tell, you should pump up the resume and then look for a better-paying position. How long have you been in this position? A good year would help you a lot toward getting a better job. If you did any work for a professor related to your field, that should go in your resume for work experience. Don't go for a second job unless you want to have no free time to yourself or get burnout. You sound to be being exploited because that salary is a slap in the face. In 1999 I started my first lab job making $35k/yr. plus all the standard benefits. I was just graduated from the university, like you.
