This has been the case for many workers across the country. Elliot says, "Gas is just through the roof. Unless it’s payday, I put in all the money I have at the time, sometimes borrowing money from family and friends." “I began to realize that what I was making at Amazon was not enough to pay for gas. My biggest concern is not being able to get to work to make any money. You have to pretty much rob Peter to pay Paul", he adds.
The percentage of employed workers working multiple jobs has steadily increased from 4 to 4.8% since March 2020. In February 2020, 5.1% of workers in the United States held two or more jobs. Typically it is a sign of a healthy job market when people pick up more jobs but it is also a sign of increasing financial strain on Americans’ pocketbooks. Workers are now increasingly taking up second full-time jobs to make ends meet.
