Picking up extra shifts feels like easy money. In reality, it mostly helps the owner. Every time you say “yes, boss,” you take away their reason to hire and train someone new. You end up more tired and more stressed, and once tax comes out, you’re barely better off. In this video I break down: - Why extra shifts help the business more than they help you - What they do to your sleep, diet, training and mood - The real hourly maths of a hospo wage compared with what’s on your payslip - How to use your two days off to build your exit instead - If you need the money, how to do extra shifts with a time limit, and put every dollar into your exit fund That’s exactly what I did. I used my time off to qualify, build my client base, and replace my chef’s wage on my own roster. 👇 In the comments, tell me what you’d build with your two days off.
