Yea, a lot people my age that I know and work with that aren't going to school have to take two jobs in order to support themselves. Another downside of working two low paying jobs is if your workplaces decide to up your hours you get stuck working overtime but without overtime pay, and sometimes you end up working 16 hour days. Not fun.
