That's what I've read on google! Unfortunately I need health insurance, so neither are an option anyway. Thank you for the input! :)

They are the same; as needed positions. Some have requirements of minimum hours per month or per quarter, or weekend and holiday requirements; it just depends on the position

Sending positive vibes on your job hunt!
