I was speaking to a meter reader the other day. He knocks on a door, reads the number on the meter and types it into his hand held computer and gets £5 per house. That's good money!!

Four possibilities maybe: 1) because you're not maximizing your search opportunities, and/or 2) you don't have the qualifications for what you're applying for, and/or 3) your work history, references and resume suck, and/or 4) when you get an opportunity to interview it's all about how you're a mom, how great it is, how committed to your family you are, you inflexible your schedule is, etc. Which would freak any employer out. If it's only the "single mom" factor that you feel disqualifies you, then you might be stressing that you're a single mom too much. The fact is, there's no legal reason for an employer to know if you even have kids, are married, etc. The only question they can ask to that point is if you have any personal, religious or health reasons why you cannot perform the duties as described. If you really ARE available from 9-5 you shouldn't be having a problem finding employment.

Get a job that involves lots of tips, like waiting tables. I'm not certain but I don't think tips are taxable. Or get a spot as a night porter in a hotel. Don't go for a very exclusive hotel as the really rich folks don't tip, but don't go for a one star dive because the tenants probably can't afford to tip.
If you need to politely solicit a tip, it helps to develop an awkward silence and shift about on the spot. Maybe clear your throat. It might be difficult to bear but you will soon have more practice than the tenant and he will tip when he gets the hint.... if he has any change on him, obviously.

How about a cinema attendant? I used to work at a cinema to supplement my full time wage. I no longer work at the cinema but did it for ten years. A word of warning though, you will get extremely tired working two jobs so make sure you get enough rest.

Good grief, it is a bad state of affairs when one is struggling while working 45 hours a week. I believe you though. Maybe care work? But we should bring on the socialism so you can get a livimg wage. Bless you.

if I were you I'd find a job where you are allowed to work overtime, or MORE overtime, since you are already working 45 hours/week.
My suggestion, by the way, would be a weekend job.

Sell your unwanted household items on eBay.... do it in the evenings and on weekends.... it's a great way to raise extra cash.
