Working Two Jobs😑

in #hive-1962332 years ago

Hello guys... Hope we're holding up good.

On my end, it's has been quite hectic making me sort of inactive
for about 25 days now.

I've always claimed to be the typical Jack of all Trade. Well, that haven't been a lie at all.

However, I find that no matter how demanding my "trades" may be, I still get to mange them pretty well such that I don't lack in any area.

Recently though, I started a Mini Restaurant and made a strange discovery which I'll let you know about, later in this post.

I've worked as a teacher in a private secondary for about 2 months now and this short period of time was more than enough for me to realize that waiting a whole month to get paid isn't my calling. It just doesn't sit well with me. 7:30am to 3pm was a lot of hours for me to spend everyday to get paid very little at the the end if the month so I set out to search for something more satisfying to do.

I discovered that there's no affordable restaurant for people in this area to sit and enjoy their meals. The food vendors around are women who hawk food around. I decided it would be nice to actually have a sit-in restaurant. I wanted one, for days I couldn't cook and since the town didn't have one, I started one myself.

Having to combine teaching and the restaurant business have been hectic. I've been searching for a worker for days now but to no avail. Apparently, people of this town are just so docile which is quite pitiful.

Somehow, I've managed to put up with this daily two jobs schedule for about 3 weeks now and I'm not planning to give up anytime soon. It's been challenging and great too. There have been some Miracles along the way as well as challenges which teaches me to do better and makes me stronger so I've decided to keep pushing.

The strange discovery I made though is that "not all trades can be handled by one Jack".

It's safe to combine certain trades while it can be really overwhelming or even impossible to combine some other trades together especially to be handled by one Jack, if you know what I mean 😉

I'm adjusting to my new routine and the fact that I can find the time to make this post means that my trades aren't ambiguous enough to stop me from Hiving and that's just perfect for me.

So, what do you think guys?
Thanks for your usual support.

Please drop by again soon!🤗🤗

Phew! I hope you see someone to employ soon. Sometimes Jack needs a helper.

Honestly!..🥺🥺

Dear @nkechi, sorry to jump in a bit off topic but may I ask you to support the HiveSQL proposal?
It lost its funding recently and your help would be much appreciated to keep the HiveSQL service free for the Hive community.
You can do it on Peakd, Ecency, Hive.blog or using HiveSigner.

Thank you for your support!

Sure, it's no problem.

What's the link to access the proposal?

Look like you already voted. Thank you for your support @nkechi, really appreciate it! 👍

The pleasure is mine🤗🤗

I believe that starting a new business is never easy because there are always enough things to do. You may have to be a little tight until everything falls into place and then you can keep your food business full time.

And I also understand what you are saying about jobs that pay once a month: currently I also have two jobs, one in real life where I get paid every Saturday and Hive that pays me by the day :p I've gotten used to having a monthly salary, although that was also good because it was more money all together.

Yeah.. I understand you. The monthly payment thing is New to me. It always seems like the money is spent before it even arrives. I don't see the value, hence, the restaurant.

I hope it grows fast enough so I can take it on full time.

Thanks @lauramica for you reply.🤗
