Just thought I'd ask and see what y'all say.

Pros:

  • i can pick and choose what days/classes i want to work online
  • i hear it can be easy af, like literally just read a book the whole time

Cons:

  • kids can be crazy
  • the pay is basically the lowest amount I'd possibly accept for a day's work, varies slightly but around 130$ for 7 hours
  • gotta get up earlyish in the morning

    The school districts in my area have an online system that you can browse which classes need subs and pick and choose which and when to sign up. So at least that part would be nice.

    I am worried about how stressful or insane it would be tho actually doing the job. Like you said it seems pretty unpredictable and possibly quite bad. Idk if that's something that I want to bother with

      As far as I know it’s very easy to only pick up a single class and then not come back if you didn’t enjoy it. There’s not any long term contracts for subs afaik. You just have to do the initial paperwork/background check to make sure you’re not a pedo

        Yeah true.

        Worse case scenario i do the whole application just to decide after one day that i don't want to do it anymore. Which would suck but it's not that big of a loss
