A lot of people born in this country are kind of lazy. You see them complaining about immigrants taking jobs but when you ask if they have applied at Walmart or Tims they get uppity. "Why would I work at those places".
Dont you just sit on your ass at the gas station or slumlord it up? Its not like you work a normal job

Not even close to being a slumloard. There is not a single place we rent i would not spend a night in.

Our gas station has been closed less than 30 days in 35 years. You have no idea how much work it is.

Speaking of jobs, do any of you guys who have a full-time career ever do part-time work in the evenings and/or weekends?

A buddy of mine started doing that, and he's motivated me to do the same, since I WFH, and have the extra time to utilize in the evenings. It would have to be something in the evenings or late afternoon, as I already work full-time in my career, and can only do 20 hours or less per week.

Curious if anyone has done the same, or have any suggestions of things to consider looking at?

Start an only fans Mikey!!! I’ll join you and cater towards the women who loves fat chinks (quite niche I know)

Realistically. The more you make the more you’ll get taxed. So not worth it unless it’s very low effort.
Like day trading or investing or sitting at a gas station

I don’t even work full time hours anymore lol I couldn’t imagine a work week that’s MORE than full time. I’d rather do something cool.

I did it when I first graduated. I kept my university job so I worked my regular ass 9-5 M-F and my university job on Saturday and Sundays. Did it until they didn't need me anymore and goes back to Manic's point, they need some one more than just Sat and Sun.

Part time work for someone else after your full time job is a neverending trap trading time for money unless there’s a beneficial skill that you can learn . You’re much better off spending those 20 extra hours investing in yourself and starting a mikemhg business if you don’t want to level up your current employment situation. You’ve got more discipline than 99% of the population already. Aim high

Since it's after work, try and find something you're passionate about or a hobby.

Something my brother said at Christmas stuck with me. You either work your ass off in your 20's or your 40's. How many people do you know from high school that did nothing in their 20's now working their asses off in their 40's. I know a few.

A lot of people born in this country are kind of lazy. You see them complaining about immigrants taking jobs but when you ask if they have applied at Walmart or Tims they get uppity. "Why would I work at those places".

If you really want to get ahead in life in this country you have to be willing to work your ass off at some point in your life.

Immigrants to Canada from places like India will do well because they are willing to work harder and smarter.
Then bring them in by the boatload and call them what they are - TFWs. Not fucking "students" at a goddamn stripmall college. And it this point it's hard NOT to fault the immigrants themselves now since they have all the information right out there on the internet telling them it's a backdoor to immigrating to Canada. It's The grift that never stops grifting...
