Oh, I make more than enough. It's not like I'm barely surviving. I make around $20 an hour on straight time, anything past 8 is time and a half, Saturday is time and a half, Sunday is double. The hours kind of suck, but I am doing my best to save as much as I can as fast as I can (and make equipment purchases and invest in my cars), so I don't mind it quite as much as I could. I'm sure I can figure out the social quagmire somehow. The only thing that bothers me about it is I sometimes feel like I'm throwing away the end of my twenties, during which I haven't accomplished much socially anyway, for the sake of ensuring steady finances. I dunno. Fuck it.
