We do what we have to to survive, good or bad... I think most people in the world are one major disaster away from losing everything. It's sad but true. I'm lucky that I don't have to really hustle, but my side income off eBay does help cover some expenses which really helps. Life shouldn't be as rough as it is to survive, but I believe it always has been and always will be...
That's why people take less pay knowing they will get paid rather than go for the big bugs with a lot of risk of not getting paid...
I'm glad about the side stuffs. There was a time in my life I needed to work so much, and after over 7 years of 7 to 7, I think it really did a number on my health condition and I couldn't still feel that till today. Unfortunately, there's nothing to protect about life if we cannot pay the money that's needed to sort ourselves. Sometimes life becomes pay to live.
I took a lot of undeserving jobs, because one just had to survive
