I am employed full-time, but my spouse is under-employed and we are having problems as a result.

Economy totally sucks. At least I can laugh about it.

No job is really 100 percent secured.

I haven't had a stable job since hurricane Ike hit year ago. I have worked most of that time, but I am very weary of the instability and repeated moves.

I teach part time for 2 universities online and work sometimes full time; sometimes part time at a retail store. The retail job will gradually slow down with fewer hours over the next few weeks and eventually, I will be done there until spring. I really want to find a way to not have to go back in the spring but I can not give this up unless I feel more stable.
The big problem is that with all of the jobs, sometimes I get so tired that I get behind grading papers. And one thing that I have learned about teaching online (which I really like) is that you are supposed to be a robot and not a human who gets sick or tired.

Pay is a different matter, but the security is great.

"I am retired," but I still do an occasional transcript now and then. I'm certainly not working as much as I was last year.
