I picked up a seasonal job at Williams Sonoma a few years ago when I was bored! I spent most of my checks on new kitchenware.

Yes, the summer after my freshman year at college I worked three jobs at the same time. It didn't last for very long, because I kept having to skip a shift somewhere to make it to a shift somewhere else.

That's smart actually. I thought about doing retail once to get discounts =) I worked 2 part time jobs during college once. One was just a seasonal gig during the summer.

All throughout university, I worked at the Gap. Then when I got my teaching job, I kept my Gap job for an additional two years.

Yep. In college, I worked 25-30hrs a week at VS, worked on an on-call basis for a nanny agency and worked Friday and Saturday nights at a haunted house all at the same time for a couple months.

Myself and DH's first summer together, he was laid off (literally the week after our wedding) and so I started working three jobs, one FT, and two PT. It was really crazy busy... I started that in June 2010 and DH got a new job Jan. 2011 so it was only for about six months.

Yep! Right after university DH got an awesome job 3 hours away, so we moved. All summer I made $8 an hour at a golf course (worst summer of my life) and then right at the end of the summer I picked up 2 other jobs! So I had 3 part time jobs, then the golf course ended then I had 2 for a while before finding my current job which is more of a career and what I went to school for.

For a little while in college I worked at an elementary school helping kids with their reading groups (I got paid and I got college credit) and I worked at Bed Bath and Beyond.
I have also tutored a lot over the years while also working as a server or teacher. I don't know if I really consider that a second job, though...

Almost always! Even when I was teaching full time, I taught SAT classes and tutors for the SAT on the side. And now, as a SAHM I tutor online in the evenings and tutor at Sylvan on the weekends (does that mean I have three jobs?). I don't do well with free time.....

yup!! After my first year of college I supported myself, so I worked full time, went to school and worked part time. Looking back, I don't know how I did it and didn't burn out!
The PT job was perfect for a college kid though; I worked at Marriott taking reservations for like 100+ hotels and could do my homework between calls and also got free dinner (big deal back then lol)
