My boyfriend drives for a hour just to get paid for $50 a day because he need a job badly. What would you do if you were him?

It sounds doubtful he's fully utilizing resources nearby. With gas prices what they are now and whatnot... Why can't he work closer? What does he do? Isn't there a Walmart nearby, or literally any chain? $8/hr on an 8 hour shift is $64/day, unless you meant he's paid in cash and taxes "will be figured out later." If he's so disabled he can't do ANYTHING in your area he needs to apply for SS disability. $50/day is 13k/year. We pay the illegals that pick oranges more than that. What's stopping him from getting a better job?

He talking getting a job at club next

Or literally any job out there at above minimum wage. You're avoiding the question. What is the difficulty with him getting a real job closer? You live 300 miles from the nearest town, he has warrants, what is the reason he finds it so hard to fulfill his most basic obligation as a man? we can't answer the question if you don't provide us with a proper understanding of the problem.

There plenty of jobs closer that pay good. He even got his cdl. I don't know why he prefer to do that maybe he's desperate I don't know.

[BoopBoopBeep]

Probably because he's got a side piece out there that he can go visit every day and still come home with $50 and that's enough to get you to not question the logic of the whole situation.

He needs to keep looking for a better job like that's his job. His "starter" job isn't sustainable. But having a job makes it easier to get a better one.

He looking to work at a club as security guard

Look for something closer, or move. How can that possibly be worthwhile? The travel cost will take most of the $50.

[slatyb]

And figure out a way to earn a higher wage.

I would be putting my hands inside your pocket👀..

Well, Id try to find a better paying job, but at least he's making an effort and he's not just sitting on his ass doing nothing.

Start looking for other work

[FunkyMonkee]

Where can I get a $50 an hour job?

[Asker]

50 a day

[FunkyMonkee]

But, he only works an hour to get that. Even 50 a day is 250 more a week than I'm making, now!

[Asker]

He do it 3 days a week. But once he get the money he go broke because he driving too far.
