How does one work two jobs?

My heart says I should work at a coffee-shop,

but the pay is not enough. I'm willing to work

two retail jobs, but is that realistic? Do I need a car?

Isn't exhausting to work 50 hours/week? Advice Please.

    In the construction trade, 60 is not unusual and some do more. On the farm, it was from dawn to dusk which is a long time in the summer, but doable.  It really depends on your job. With virus going around a Coffee shop is the last job I would look at. I would look for work that pays better with less close contact to other people.  More like farm labor/piece work.  I had 5 jobs in the same day.  Couple hours here, couple hours there, Finished around about 10 PM.

    ive done three jobs. its really exhausting yeah, and i had no car, just biked and used transit. i used to regularly do 60 hours a week. no one should have to go through that, but many do sadly.

    It is exhausting to do anything 50 hours a week unless you enjoy doing it. I would suggest that you find a job that you either enjoy, or don't dislike which pays a reasonable amount over having a job you love that doesn't pay enough to live on. But I would also say not to take a job that pays big bucks if you are going to hate it. If you don't like what you do, you will burn out quickly. If you can tolerate it, 50 hours isn't all that bad.

    I presume you live in the USA where they are allowed to pay people slave labour rates. The basic casual rate in Australia is in excess of $21 an hour with many awards being higher than that. Working in a coffee shop, you would also get penalty rates for evening and weekend work. Why not join the Union and get the Unions to fight for higher wages for everyone?

    Qorking 2 retail jobs is exhausting, mainly due to the fact that the hours were sporadic for me. I never had an off day unless I put in a request. I didn;t have a set schedule at either job. Working jobs is better when both are not retail, in my opinion
