I know it's frowned upon. While you draw unemployment work side jobs just for extra cash. I have a hourly job. It pays the bills but I won't settle. I make more in side jobs a year than I do at my hourly job. I make hourly what most Union guys make. I'm just an engineer at a condo "maintainance" I went and got my hvac license few months back. I stay absolutely covered up in ac side work. I have people daily asking me to do tile work. Painting. I have to turn most down because I don't have time. The work and money is here. Just have to go get it. I came from a place where no one had money and work was scarce. Kentucky is a very poor place. South Florida is nothing but money. I have a friend making over a thousand a week washing people's cars.

put an add on Craigslist buddy!! Thad what I did. Once I got a couple customers they told their friends and next thing I know I get 10 calls a day. I came to this state not knowing anyone. 2 years ago. Now I have tons of landlords that only call me for services. If you're good at the fire sprinklers at your age and experience I would start looking for state inspector jobs. Hit craigslist man. You would be surprised what you find on there. Make some cards up. Put them in gas stations. A guy called me the other day. Paid me 100 dollar bill to change a light switch in one of his rentals. Took me less than 5 minutes. You have to be aggressive to get this money. I invest whatever money I have in savings into the stock market. Let my money make me money. Age is just a number man. Don't give up. Keep looking. Tell the union to fly a kite.

the old bracket was cast. Less than 3/16 thick where it cracked. Nothing bottoming. The new bracket went on perfect. Torqued to spec. It's 3/4 in billet. Should never break. Bad design by Mopar. The 5.2/5.9 in Dakotas and Rams had a different pump. Rack and pinion steering. It bolted to the head. Why they put the bracket on v8 grandcherokee with strait axle and steering box. Bad design. Wish I had a cnc machine!!

that's the way the cookie crumbles buddy. Next time I have a repair need done I'll call you. I didn't know you did. I just paid a guy to rebuild my front and rear. I would have gave you the job of I knew.
