Just worked at my ridiculous job for the first time since December. For one hour.

 I forgot if I mentioned this before, but I have a gig job that pays 17 cents a minute. What I do is sign up, and when people call in, I get pay 17 cents a minute, for a 15, 30 or (sometimes) 60 minute phone call. And, more specifically, I am giving them English conversation practice. I am an ESL teacher with a real job, but I used to use this between classes. During the pandemic, it saved my sanity! 

I can also sign up for something called a "Priority Hour". During this time, I agree to take all calls, and if I don't get any, it defaults to 15 minutes of pay. And today...there were no calls. So I sat at my computer for an hour reading, and then got paid $2.55

This sounds ridiculous, but I basically did it because I wanted to make my day into a "work day", like I feel better that I tried to work in some way.
