Saw a post on there yesteraday where someone couldn’t believe some of us work 2 jobs just to be able to afford rent and food. I really hope this opens a lot of westerners eyes to to what is and isn’t propaganda.
Two 20 hour jobs is optimistic. Part-time is considered anything under 35 hours a week. It’s much more likely you’re going to be stuck trying to squeeze two 30 hour jobs into a single week because neither job is going to consider the schedule of the other and you’re going to be caught in between. And as others have said, neither jobs are going to give you the benefits a 40 hour job should be giving you, but are often screwing you out of because, in the US, pretty much nothing but cheap healthcare is guaranteed for 40 hours now.

I never understood what is bad about “working 2 jobs”. (I don’t live in the US.) Is two 20 hour jobs not the same as one 40 hour job?
