    Stamina!

    I used to work in the office from 8.30am to 4.45pm Monday to Friday, then straight to one pub on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday nights from 5.00pm to 11.30pm (and go clubbing afterwards on Thursdays and Fridays). I had Saturday off, would go clubbing on Saturday night, then on Sunday worked in one pub from 11.30 to 5.00, and the other from 7.30pm til 11.00pm. On Monday nights I would work in the second pub from 7.00om until 11.30pm.

    So, three jobs, with only Tuesday nights and Saturdays off, and three 15 hour days back to back. Did it for about six months.

    If you can, get a self-employed 2nd job. Thats why I do and the beauty is you dont have to work certain hours every week.

    I DJ all around the region for people such as Ultimate Leisure, Fluid Group, etc. and its kinda upto me if I accept a shift or not.

    With being self-employed, you can knock your tax bill down quite a bit as well with expenses. I know it can be difficult to find a job which is flexible, but just worth thinking about

    trouble is if you are delivering for places non-legit they usually don't bother with niceities like car insurance for their drivers, and your own insurance won't cover business use.
