It's that time of year again! No, I don't mean Christmas; I mean finals week. You're probably up to your eyeballs in stress and on your 6th cup of coffee of the day. Sick of dealing with the stress of hopelessly trying to save your grades last minute? Had enough of late nights in Club Lib reviewing stuff that you're going to forget as soon as the final is over? Fear not! Here are 11 alternative jobs that you could take up instead of dealing with the stress of finals.
1. Bartending
You get to make fun drinks all night and sleep all day, I mean isn't that what you already do on the weekends? You might as well get paid for it.
2. Professional Tweeting
You once got seven retweets on a #relatable tweet. Do you really need any more qualifications than this?
3. Train Conductor
Every time I go into the city, I always wonder about this job. It seems like an easy alternative to the 10 page term paper I have to write about realism in modern American literature.
4. Becoming YouTube Famous
With technology nowadays, you can make a name for yourself with a kinda good sense of humor, a good camera, and editing skills. It blows my mind that people literally get paid for doing their makeup in front of a camera or just talking about their day. If I did a makeup tutorial during finals week it would probably look something like this:
5. Stripping
Because it's hard to find your dignity when you haven't slept in 48 hours.
6. Delivering Pizza
You get to drive around and give people food. If that's not living for others than I don't know what is.
7. Driving an Uber
Can you drive from point A to point B without getting anyone killed? If so, congrats you're skilled enough to be an Uber driver.
8. Palm Reading
I can see the future: it involves me eating endless amounts of Insomnia cookies and crying in the library.
9. Professional Cuddling
This is an actual thing. Like people actually put ads on Craigslist for cuddle sessions. Sign me up.
10. Dressing up as Santa
You know it's bad when sitting in a gross sweaty costume all day and holding screaming children in your arms is less painful than studying for finals. Dear Santa: All I want for Christmas is an A in Econ.
11. Writing Fortune Cookies
No matter how bad things seem, you will make it through this week!
