I don't know if I should be happy or not.

I didn't put back the starter yet, I was too tired to do it. I wanted to rest before and do it at 6 in the morning tomorrow. I called the broker and he told that it was ok as long as the truck starts before 9, which gives me enough time to do it. But then he said " Hey listen, if you stay with me, you'll make big bucks. I will run cheaper, you'll be richer. I got the rear brake boosters to do next week if you can, also I have a cylinder head to replace. I got friends that wants people like you to fix their trucks and are willing to pay good money for it too. I understand that winter sucks and it's cold outside, even I would not do it and I wont force you. But this summer, I have a lot of jobs for you if you want! I always have something that breaks each 2 weeks hahaha." . My kindness took over and said yes. Now i'll have a shit load of money but no time to spend it (really cool) and probably no time to watch that HUGE list of movies and shows I have to watch and games that I have to play (not cool). But, i'll clear my debts faster this way or pay myself a better condition sports car and at the same time, improve my skills and knowledge about trucks repair. What do you think of this Oppo. Did I do the right decision?

I'm just a mere college student with no job and with a gf and boy does it suck to not have a job. If you have any other jobs that would have been better should have stated it. I mean sure he persuades you by saying you'll be richer, but the experience is good. though he could be just persuading. In a way i suppose it is the right decision.

I'm already a mechanic in a private workshop. I make enough money by working at the workshop alone. That's why I feel that I don't need the sidejobs, but the pros of it does overthrow the cons.

I was in a better situation when I was poor imo. I felt that I didn't need to spend a lot compare to now.

You can either have time or money, not both :)

I suppose the trick is to have enough money when you've got no time that there's some left over when you're free.

Dont think about it too much, extra cash, means extra cash. If the body is capable of delivering the strength to have the work done, then do it. I never turn down a job.
