Who doesn’t want a little extra cash during the holiday season? Most people do, except they may not want to have to fight unruly customers or endure extreme weather conditions to get it. If this sounds like you, it doesn’t mean you should throw in the towel on the search all together. There are actually temp options you can try this holiday season that pay well. It just requires thinking outside the box.
