Actually take my well deserved leaves (now that I finally can !). Personally, I’ll do Uber/Lyft driving and maybe even do some free lance projects (not sure how to get them, but pretty sure I’ll figure it out. bless my technical skills, that’s an option).

Driving lyft or uber from a net income per hour perspective is less than the minimum wage

Think it depends on the car too. Always weird seeing guys in expensive maintenance cars doing it.

Unemployment

Dog walking or babysitting. Way better money than Uber!

Bartender. I can memorize/produce cocktails reliably and do a good job pointing friends in the direction of new ones they would like.

I think if you’re a big enough nerd about anything, there’s a way to extract money from it.

Live on the money I saved and do something artsy while applying for new positions. That or take a programming class, or all 3. If i did not find anything in a month or two I would be a Lyft driver.

I knew a guy that did Uber as a way to pass time, not sure if he actually made money though

Maybe try going independent. But theres a part of me that would rather move to Vermont and work in a ski shop.
