Hi, I'm currently a waitress, been one for about a month. I've worked various other jobs and really miss them partly because the people I did work with pulled their weight did their work. I have enough college hours to substitute teach, however I do not like kids that well. On the flip side, my waitressing job, ironically the smell of food cooking in large quantities(a restauant or fast food), makes me gag. I really was in a bind and needed the money. Right now I'm still going to college and fixing to go online for my Bachelors so I can have a full time job. So if you were me, would you stick with the waitressing(btw pay = 6.50 an hour, I work 15 hours, and we split our tips, we average about $17 a night). Substitute around here($55-75 a day).

By the way I work thursday-saturday night, husband works days. Barely see each other all week(I could break down time but I'm not going to). I cannot get any more hours at my current job.

Depends on how much subbing is available to you. If you can sub three or so days a week, you could probably make close to the amount that the waitress job is paying you and still get to spend the evenings with your husband. But if you don't like teaching, then be sure that the degree you are working toward gives you opportunities in some other field.

What is your degree in? With such small pays, you want to work for the experience, not just for money. What are you learning at the job? Work in the area in which the experience will help you grow as a career woman.
