Getting Busy Again-What do I do?

Man, here I have been out of a job (on paid leave till May) for the last 2 1/2 months trying to figure out what to do next, so I accepted a job at the local Wal-Mart as a part time evening job and started training today, the local CO-OP just called and offered me a temporay job driving nurse tank trucks! I don't know what to do, because the CO-OP job is 40 hours plus over time and not too sure I will have time for Wally World. And I am still looking for a full time job to replace the old one! I must be crazy!

Any opinions?

I guess I was venting, but also asking advice if I should try and do both jobs. Well, I tried it Thrusday, put in 10 hours at the CO-OP and then 6 hours at Wally World! Thank goodness it rained me out for the CO-OP job today. I am beat and I can already see this is going to be a pain to try and keep up with. I think wally world is only going to have me work 1 or 2 evenings during the week and the other times on weekends so I might be able to do this...does anybody think I'm crazy for a 41 year old??

I guess the question is do you need two jobs? If not dump the one you don't need.

Wal-Mart is pretty much thought of as one of the worst employers in the nation, take the CO-OP job and the overtime.

Since I work in retail I will tell you take your chance and get out of it ASAP!!! I work at Lowes and the managers that are in charge are horrible, the managers might start off ok but you will end up hating them.

Yeah I was kind of wondering about why they had a sign up in the training room that said "Turn over rate as of today 56%, goal of 40%" As far as needing the money well, even thou I am on paid leave till May it is about 900.00 short a month of what I had been making and like an idoit my family and I managed to spend what I have earned so I guess I see it as maybe I should bust my self to earn back what I have lost while I try to find a replace job with a similar salary. The Co-op job is only til the end of June at best, so I thought at least the other job would help out. I guess my biggest concern is what if I don't find a replacement job like I had and what do I do when the last big paycheck comes in? My life is a little hectic right now!
