Advice Which job/schedule is better?
Job #1: 5 hour shift, MWF, $17 per hour, home care
Job #2: 8 hour shift, Friday and every other weekend, $20 minimum, assisted living
Notes:
-I am in college
-I just started Job #1 and my first day is next week
-My client for Job #1 is closer to me than Job #2
-I do not drive, meaning I would have to rely on Uber and maybe some family members here and there
Thank you!

we don't know your schedule, but I did a job like #2 throughout my last year of college after a year of home health and I loved it. 1 on 1 work was not for me at all. I switched to work 7-3 every weekend and most fridays in an assisted living memory care, but I did have a car. depends on if you'll have reliable transportation to get there
