If I lost my job tomorrow and needed the cash to come in I'm not above digging ditches or flipping burgers. Do what you have to do if you can't get something better soon. Too many people are "holding out for a management position" these days. I've seen it many times and then all they do is whine on facebook about how they are broke.
