This is just too hard for me; I can't do the sum.
Calculations have lead me to conclude that at absolute minimum, my job can't maintain my already-sparse lifestyle. It's just enough to chip at the bills that are right in front of me.
Which means I really have to take up a double job, or look into something that pays more on top of giving solid hours. Which is slightly disappointing and decidedly annoying. I mean, I'm just settling into this place, but already it seems like it's time to go. I rather like getting comfortable in a routine--dynamics aren't my thing when it involves snatching the ground from underneath my feet.
But then, this is something I can more or less take at a unhurried pace. So long as I'm trained and covered in more than three departments for this retail gig, I can net the hours necessary to keep myself afloat for another five months. I can't help out like I want to or do the bill hacking that I want to, but I'd be able to sustain self and roof over head.
Then, the obvious conclusion is to look back into my fields of expertise. Retail & food services are nice, but they don't quite pay bills. I have this afternoon's goal, then. Well, that and getting a shave & haircut so I cease to look like a malnourished Wookie.
