With increased costs every year it’s getting tough and the job market doesn’t seem to catch up well with growing inflation. Some of my friends have 2nd jobs and usually just work them on the weekends. Anyone here ever had two or more jobs?

Haven't had to pull the trigger on a second job yet, but I've definitely thought about it. So far I've just sold old stuff off facebook marketplace, but that's not consistent and I've kind of run out of things to sell lol. I'm not sure I could handle a second job at this point, but I definitely understand why people are getting them. Money is tight right now and I don't really see an end in sight

I’m sorry to hear that. Maybe someone will turn around for you very soon.

You are right about that OP. I just had to go to my boss and ask for a raise because it has been two years since I have had one. Sad when you think about it because the price of everything just keeps going up and they aren't giving out raises unless you go to them and ask.

Wow, two years? Yes I would’ve been asking after the one year mark. Glad you said something to your boss!

I have 3. I got laid off last year for a sr. job at one of the big telcomms and am now doing consulting along with walking dogs to make ends meet. You do what you need to in this economy.

Ahh I see. I know what you mean by that…

Comforting others:
When someone tells me bad news regarding their health, I say everything I am supposed to say (I’m sorry to hear that, I’m here for you, etc) EXCEPT “everything is going to be ok”. Because I can’t guarantee that and I really don’t know if everything is going to be ok. I was taken aback recently when a friend told me I am calloused and cold-hearted for not being able to say those words. Is she right? Should I start saying this for the purposes of providing comfort only??
