well I created a profile on UpWork and have been browsing the available jobs, and I applied for two test proctor positions with Princeton Review. I'm also looking at Amazon Flex.

I teach and consult within my field as 2 side gigs, similar to day job. Can you do any tutoring based on your previous ba? Is there anything from your current employ that you could offer smaller organizations that can't afford or don't need FT in house positions? I've been thinking about that for a while, believe me. My BA is in philosophy so not really something I can tutor, lol. And apparently I don't know how to do anything - I have no writing, editing, proofreading, database, graphic design, SAS/statistical package, drafting, teaching, accounting, etc.... experience. I can do data entry, spreadsheets, and other minor office work. I am legit useless. All signs are pointing to stripper.

MJ if you do proctor, know that there are generally two positions, and they are not paid the same: one is the test administrator, the other is the warm body in the room (depending on how many people are taking the test).
If you do decide to invest your time in this, you'll eventually want to become a test administrator.

It did finish out my vacation fund one year though.

I dunno if there'd be the same money in that, but it's worth a shot.

I read about MJ's Twitch account, and for a second there I thought she was taking your suggestion seriously and streaming "live"

I thought about you when I read that Mark Cuban article about what he would do if he lost everything and had to start over. He said he would immediately get a job as a bartender during the nights and find a job as a sales person during the days. He's a good sales person so he felt strongly that he'd be able to make millions again. As soon as he brought in enough commissions for some capital to start his own business, he'd be back in the game.
Me, I have no interest in sales and I've worked in restaurants. I love sports and understanding rules, so I'd have no problems getting certified and signing up for all the ref/ump gigs during the evenings and weekends while I look for a steady income job during the day. I also wouldn't mind delivering for amazon or driving for lyft/uber during the day, since I could decide for myself if I was available to work the times needed around interviews.
