conversation: User (Dougrrcp): "I am a healthcare professional and have recently become a stay at home dad in order to care for my daughter with special needs. My wife is working full time, but we are still behind about $1000/month. We have cut our expenses to the minimum. I need to make $1000/month from home. I am desperate for any suggestions."
  Self: "I'd seriously consider a swing/night shift position. You can easily make more than you're looking to and it solves the problem of child care. My SO's parents did this for years to keep dual incomes without chilcare costs. It's less than ideal, but family comes first. It's even better if you can find something with extended shifts. SO's mom worked 3x 13hr shifts each week and has been able to maintain that schedule for 20+ years while s having a social life.\n\nEdit: a word. Shifts=\=shits"

  BetaRayBillyMays (BetaRayBillyMays): "Bartending really isn't as easy as people seem to think as far as quickly getting a job. Unless op is an extremely attractive woman it won't be a walk in and get hired deal."
  BZLuck (BZLuck): "Agreed. I worked for a hotel with several restaurants in the lobby in my 20's while going to college. I went from host to busboy to waiter, to head waiter, and after about 5 years there, I was offered a job as the assistant manager of the restaurant.\n\nI was in college at that time so I didn't want to commit to a management "career" that I had no intention of pursuing so I declined. Figuring that they loved me working there, I instead asked if I could be a bartender. They considered it, and as it turned out, I still had to work as a barback for just under a year before they let me bartend.\n\nSource: Reasonably smart average white dude, not a musclebound guy or a stacked chick."
