  • I really thought that when I managed to get a ‘grown up’ job that the money thing would be much less daunting but I have been a fool there. It’s so weird to be ‘successful’ in your work yet not able to ever stop being paycheck to paycheck.

    Anyway, back to the question…I work from home in my regular FT gig so I have been looking for simple but social work. For me, this means something in the service industry like working a door on weekends at pubs. I hate customer service but fuck me if it isn’t the only thing I can think of that keeps me chatting with people.


  • Western US, I work FT in financial crime as a senior analyst. I’m actively looking for a new employer and applying for postings that meet my privileged requirements because I’m not yet desperate. I’m also considering taking a part-time job (how the fuck do we manage to afford to live anymore, seriously?!) that’s something entry level and social.

    That said, I primarily browse on LinkedIn for a replacement to my main gig, and I’ve used Indeed a little bit. For the PT gigs, I am using a local paper’s app to browse their classifieds.

    Edit to add: I also use Blind and Glassdoor to get a read on the places I’m applying. No one wants to work at some shithole if it can be helped. If you’re looking for a referral to places, I’d recommend asking in the company’s Blind if someone is willing.
