I’ve been juggling my day job as an escalator mechanic with a few side gigs streaming, dabbling in the stock market, and some audio engineering projects. While it’s been fun, I’ve hit some unexpected roadblocks. For example, finding time to stream consistently is tougher than I thought, especially with unpredictable work hours. And the stock market? Let’s just say it’s a whole different beast when you’re trying to research stocks between service calls.
Anyone else here balancing a hands-on job with side hustles? How do you manage the time crunch or the mental switch between totally different skillsets? Would love to hear what’s worked for you or even just what didn’t!
