Something on the side

I am broke.. well not quite yet, I have about 300 dollars... but when my car payment, phone, insurance, gas, credit card etc all comes I will be fottaly sucked...

It wouldnt have been a problem because I had a job I didnt mind where I was making about 2200 a month, low and behold me and my boss have a little quarrel, I no longer work there (The ROE says I quit, which I did, but he was going to fire me the previous day after I went home and rather then come in to work the next day I quit even though he realized he fucked up and changed his mind). So now I have a shite job to just pay the bills... I make minimum wage and it isnt cutting it... I suppose it would if I didnt already owe money but I do...

So, I need some suggestions of something I can do on the side, to make some extra dough.. any tips and suggestions are greatly appreciated (tips as in, sell your teeth, im not asking for your money)

Yeah, learn to grovel. Go ask for your old job back. Tell your boss you were a tool and apologize. Don't mention the fact that you know he fucked up and had changed his mind. As far as that goes, it was 100% your fault. Take total responsability.

you have all your life to enjoy it.. not just while you are young. In fact, I'm having a better time because I put in more hard work than some of my peers.

welcome to life.

Options: get a better job, get a second job, or cut expenses.

Can you work two jobs while you look for a better-paying job? If so, take the second job and start looking. It's just for the short/medium turn, until you can get yourself into a better place.

If you can't imagine looking for a better job while working two jobs, then cut expenses. Lose the phone, lose the car, lose what you have to lose. Look for better work.

The other option is just to work two shit jobs for all eternity, and that's not realistic unless you stay stoned forever, which you won't be able to afford on what they pay you :-).

Jam, what do you do, and where in Canada are you located?
I work in a pretty decent company - I can always pass you in as a referral if you're qualified for anything.

If you're looking for side work period - along with your normal day job, I may be of assistance in that area as well. I've been pretty successful with a few of my side businesses - so I can show you a few options available to you in Canada.
