After writing my previous post about possibly holding down two or more jobs at the same time - view the post here https://www.mylot.com/post/3361767/working-two-or-more-jobs-go-or-no - I remembered that I did hold two jobs at the same time once. I was a supervisor for an international company and I was already with them for a good four years so the tasks were getting repetitive. I could literally do my work with my eyes closed. Plus my schedule was great - worked in the mornings from 6am to 2pm. I decided to apply for an ESL tutor position. ESL as in English as a Second Language Tutor... I taught English to Japanese and Brazilian students. The schedule was good here as I'm able to choose what time I would teach and on what days I'll be teaching. Everything was done through Skype. So my schedule would look like this: 1st job from 6am to 2pm Gym/training until 4pm Travel back home 2nd job from 6pm to 8pm On my days off, I would get more schedules like 6am to 10am and then I would start earlier in the afternoon like 4pm up to 8pm. The pay was good and it was relatively easy. Not sure why I stopped doing it. Guess, I got bored or I wanted to train more and spend more time in the gym. Given another chance, I'd definitely do it again especially with the current situation nowadays.

@allen0187 How did you do it? I could not follow that schedule. My hat goes off to you. I would get sick if I took on all you did.

@allen0187 I do not have the energy to work lots of jobs. I try my best these days doing things online but yet that is still hard for me. When I worked two or three jobs at a time it was hard. I just do not have energy like others. If I wear myself out I get sick. All I can say is I try to do the best I can.

You can always get back to it since you cant go out to the gym nowadays.

Yeah that's the plan. I still get to workout at home so that takes care of not being able to hit the gym.

I have had more than one part time job a few times, although I could not manage two full time jobs.
