Q: You might be able to find a short term job more easily if you have certain skills. Bookkeeping and accounting jobs are often short term or temporary. If you have skills as a bookkeeper, you can often find a well paying position on a short-term basis. Offices and human resource departments often look for part-time workers when they have an increase in paperwork or filing. If you have tech skills, some firms or websites may hire on a short-term basis. The online marketplace Craigslist features an "ETC" category under the Jobs heading local newspapers also often carry advertisements for quick, temporary work. Check everywhere you can and think about what you're able to do. Take a job as a sign waver. All kinds of businesses hire sign wavers to stand outside for 8 or 10 hours and wave a large sign at passing cars. Used car lots, payday loan stores, and furniture stores in particular use this marketing technique and often pay in cash at the end of the day. Help out with event work. Browse listings for people and small businesses who need help setting up, running, and tearing down booths for local events like farmer's markets and street fairs. These jobs often start early in the day and often pay the same day. Be prepared to do anything from construction to running a booth. This isn't a reliable way to make a lot of money, but if you're just a few dollars short, it can make up the difference. A Google search will help you find some online surveys. Be sure you qualify for the study before you apply. For example, you won't want to apply for a study that is looking at the effects of smoking if you aren't a smoker. Apply in person to expedite the process. In the case of some surveys, you'll be able to show up and do a paid survey right then and there. Studies usually last longer, but may provide compensation before the end of the study period. Temporary work agencies place thousands of employees with daily work. If you have specialized work skills or previous experience in a field, you might have very good luck temping. There are a number of tips to help you get started with an agency: Visit the agency. Tell them you want to work, and follow their instructions. There will usually be an application to fill out, followed by an interview where you go over your work history and qualifications. Bring a resume with you. It will help the temp agency sort out what types of jobs you are qualified for. Dress for an office environment. Business dress shows you are looking to be successful and will fit in a professional setting. Meet your agent. He or she will work to find jobs for you every day. Try to be pleasant and get along with your agent; it could help your chances some. Take any job you're offered. Temp agencies can't work miracles; they don't find work for every temp employee every day. If your agent finds work that you can do and offers it to you, take it immediately. Sometimes, a temp in a longer-term contract can get hired on as a regular employee, so always treat it like a "real" job.
A: Think about what your skills are. Check the local listings for short-term jobs. Participate in studies or surveys. Join a temp agency.

Q: This is the single best exercise you can do to get big, thick thighs, since it engages the most muscle fibers in the area. Hold a barbell bearing weight you can lift for 10-12 reps. Stand with your feet shoulder-length apart. Bend your knees and squat so that your thighs are parallel to the floor. Hold the squat for 10 seconds. Push back up. Repeat 10-12 times for 3 sets.
A: Do barbell squats.

Q: If you know you're going to be hitting the town or crashing a rager come the weekend, try to get at least 7-8 hours of quality sleep every night leading up to your outing. That way, one night of tossing and turning won't cause your overall sleep patterns to suffer too much. If you're already sleep-deprived by the time you start tying one on, you're guaranteed to feel it more by the time you have a few drinks in you. By the same token, it's advisable not to put yourself in a position where you're forced to sacrifice a night of sleep more than about once a week. Choose foods that are high in proteins, carbohydrates, and fats, like meats and other rich, hearty offerings. Starting out with a little food in you will keep you from hitting your limit too quickly and make it easier for your body to absorb and process all the alcohol in your system. A handful of pretzels at the bar won't cut it, but a greasy cheeseburger or chicken quesadilla can help minimize the damage you do to yourself over the course of a wild night. If you don't have an opportunity to sit down to a full meal, go heavy on nutrient-dense snacks like nuts, cheese, and fruit to keep your blood sugar up. For every cocktail or shot you throw back, drink at least 8 fluid ounces (240mL) of water to balance out your fluid levels. Alcohol is a diuretic, which means that the more you drink, the worse you'll have to pee. Consistently replenishing the water in your cells will keep dehydration from sneaking up on you. Carry a bottle of water with you so you won't be at your server or bartender's mercy for refills. Dehydration is the primary culprit for the achey, disoriented feelings associated with hangovers. Stick to cocktails that don't include cola, coffee, or souped-up energy drinks. This one is a no-brainersince caffeine is a stimulant, it's one of the worst things you can put in your body if you plan on catching some Zs in the near future. Vodka and Red Bull might mix well, but caffeine and restful sleep don't. Other popular caffeine-laden libations to steer clear of include rum and Cokes, Long Island iced teas, SoCo 7s, Irish coffees and car bombs, and Four Loko. If you have to have a little soda in your spritzer, go with a 7 and 7, which usually calls for caffeine-free lemon lime soda.
A:
Make sure you've slept well for several nights before drinking. Eat a balanced meal so you're not on an empty stomach. Pace yourself with water to ensure that you stay hydrated. Avoid mixed drinks containing caffeine.
