Is it even worth the effort to apply for jobs?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:Jobs that I’ve had that were very part time include flower delivery and a job I have now with a company that specializes in moving old people’s stuff into assisted living. I’d check Craigslist’s job classifieds, too, since they generally are filled with part time gigs. You can also file for unemployment, but that probably means you’ll have to spend some time every week looking for a job.
