From my morning job. They said that they can't pay me in the summer months, so they're abolishing my position. Not too torn up about it, as I was planning on leaving at the end of June anyway, but missing a month of pay is a bit disappointing. I still have my afternoon job, but that tends to be less than 2 hours a day, and at minimum wage it's kinda piss-poor in comparison to what I make at the morning job. Gonna have to find a way to make a couple extra bucks. I'll still be working for two more weeks, but after that...
If you desperately need money, set up a GoFundMe and use that money to pay for essentials. It's what kept me here at home because my dad decided if I made $1000 that fast he had no reason to kick me out. Otherwise I can also recommend singing commissions since I know you're pretty good at that (may be thinking of the wrong person here), or art commissions, if you can. Set up a "pay what you want" system and have a minimum. This is all the advice I can offer but I hope it helps. So sorry to hear about your lay off, and may you fare well.
I'm not extremely desperate, at least not right now. I have 2000 dollars in my savings, and I do still have two more paychecks coming from that place, so I should be good for at least a little while. My afternoon job tends to pay for my weekly expenses, but now that my car is payed off and all that good stuff, the money from the morning was supposed to be a buffer for when I go to school in the fall. Also I like not being poor. Idk who'd wanna pay me to sing, but I'll do it if you think I should? I haven't been competing in Idol recently due to lack of time, but, uh, I guess I have time to do that kind of stuff now. Same with the art commissions, which I've actually been meaning to set up for a while now, but, again, I had zero time this semester.
I know that people would potentially pay you at least a little to have you record a happy birthday song for someone. Believe me, some people are that bad at singing. And right, even if you aren't desperate right now, things happen, remember. Not that I'd wish it upon you, but things do go wrong. Good luck, Fearless. We're rooting for you.
Many thanks. Gonna see if I can snag a few extra hours in the afternoon, and see if I can do any odd jobs for my grandmother or something. I'll be fine, at least for a bit.
If you're decent at cooking, you could try selling food that you make. My youth group does that with burritos., though I don't know where you'd sell your product (lol sounds like drugs lol)
I f*cking love to cook so that would be fantastic if I actually had somewhere to sell the food. Unfortunately, I live in a pretty rural area so it's hard to think up places to sell. And I'm a bit too old to pull off 'Girl Scout Selling Cookies' or 'Roadside Lemonade Stand'.
Do everything Wanda said and ignore the rest. You could also ask for a raise/more hours if you feel the need. I managed to weasel five extra hours a week out of my last job because I told them I had an extra car payment and needed the cash.
