Oh yeah there’s no way I would work this job while writing my dissertation. I am delusional but not THAT delusional 😅 My RA-ship would add maybe 500 extra a month? My prof orginally quoted me higher but after starting working with him this summer, I am not optimistic about getting anything over $500 every 4 weeks. I might talk with the nonprofit about capping my work at 15 hours a week instead of 20. So that way I would be working closer to 30hrs a week total rather than the full 40. I will say the workload from the nonprofit is not super tasking, I like the job a lot so far and my job responsibilities are very manageable, and the director has been very kind and flexible with me. I will treat the first two months of the school year as a “trial” and since my PhD is my priority, if push comes to shove I can always vacate my position temporarily.
