Anyway it is now 20. The pay is not enough to maintain my basic lifestyle/bills. I have enough savings to pay off my debt obligations after which i'll be living paycheck to paycheck.

Twist: In September I'll be attending some job recruiting events for potential jobs that start next year (aka CA Recruit). These events happen during day-time and I had flex days that I would've used to attend these events.

I'm confused as to what I should do now.
1) should I stick with 20hrs per week until October 1st and start looking for ft positions after?
2) should I apply for a new full time accounting position (this will hinder my ability to attend recruiting events)
3) Should I find a pt 20hr customer service job(I'm over qualified for most csr/retail jobs- so this might be a challenge)
4) other - suggest me something
thanks in advance for all feedback

With your level of experience, forget the CSR type jobs. Go talk to an accounting recruiter and get yourself something to augment or even replace your 20 hours.
