<human>: I was let go over a month ago and have been struggling to find a job. I decided to cut my salary expectations down a bit and have been offered two jobs. They are both temporary options until I find something with better financial growth. 

The first is pet sitting and dog walking. The nice thing about this is that I could keep it on the side once I found a full time gig. It pays $10.60 per half hour visit. I could get up to 20 visits a day plus the perk of being out and about and dealing with mainly animals and not people. I've verb told clients also like to tip and give gifts. So I'd have that going for me. Only issue here is that it's not guaranteed to be a full book all the time and I'd be an independent contractor. So I'd owe money come tax season. But the hours are flexible and I created a schedule around my daughters life so it's nice. 

The second offer is at a convenience store. The hours are guaranteed full time but the schedule is awful. I'd have to find someone to take my kid to school every day and to watch her on the weekends for full days. No fun. It does have great benefits, but I've heard it's hard to grow there unless you know someone which I do not. It pays $10 per hour at 9 hour shifts. I've heard from many that is soul crushing and the customers can make or break your day. 

So do I go with the one that's more risky but has more earning potential or the one that's "safe" but time and life consuming?

Summarize the given text in a few sentences.
<bot>: I have two job opportunities.  One that's financially risky but has earning potential and one that's safe but soul crushing. Which would you choose?
