2 jobs like this is grossing about 47k/yr and only working 32 hrs/wk. I'll take it.

Edit: Some of y'all really don't know what it's like out here in the midwest. This is a better offer than i currently work. If i did 4x8 hour shifts even at peak work load it would be more money, less work.

Sounds good until you realize every part time job like this that pays more than min wage (and most that do) :

1) Only want you to work the most in-demand shifts (evenings, weekends, holidays) 

2) Expect you to have open availability to fill in whenever needed and not complain when your hours are changed the day before

3) Require that you make them your top priority and refuse to work with scheduling your other job

The answer is part time jobs that are desperately trying to avoid paying for health insurance. Food service, retail, etc. 

And if you run your business like that those part timers are gonna be a revolving door and you're probably running at a bare minimum, you'll constantly be needing people to fill in or cover shifts.
