How to do with a 2nd job???

Post by Hawkeye4077 »

Hey all

So I got my first gig for the summer. The thing is it`s not full time and it`s not paying all the bills. I`m looking at the possibility of taking a 2nd job to get the bills paid until I get a more full time sched. and that`s cool with me. So how do you tell your 2nd job boss at the interview that sometimes you will have to leave for 2-3 weeks and having him not to laugh in your face and still hire you? any advise from ppl who have had the same problem?

Thanks

Hawk

Tell him/her straight up right off the bat - if you don't it will come back and bite you; you'll get scheduled to work both jobs at the same time, and neither employer will have a spare to take your place. If they don't hire you then it's not the right job for you.

Haha, that was overdue. Mind if I quote you everytime a question gets asked that can use that reply? Better yet, you should lurk the halls of avcanada policing them with that line.

Allright, once again this forums has proven itself that if your question doesn't make everybody happy it will turn to another thread full of cr*ap.

I'm not any better with a stupid come back @ Bater but the outcome is the same.
