Making Ends Meet

Having the opportunity to teach English to foreign students is great for a few things: you can get away with being a bit sloppy with your self-presentation and be a bit more informal in the way you come across. It also makes for some good money, if only a few hours!
My big problem is: I need the job with the long hours and reasonable pay. Bendicks (chocolate and confectory giants) have called me to interview on the 30th. I was keen to teach and work in the bar, but the bar's hours are slowly going down the swanny. I'm on for one night this week, a grand total of 7 hours. True, its money but it isnt steady hours. I think that shift work could be the answer; turn up, clock in, slave away and get paid.
Still, it could be worse (counting blessings...)
My room's mess keeps returning, Philip K Dick had it right about that kipple...
