Ways to make money short-term

Listen, I really need some help on this.. I have a decent side job that I'm raising my hours to near full time (I'm in school). I get $4.35 an hour + tips. Tips alone, without my wage, I get $10-$15 an hour. For example, today I worked 3.5 hours and got $70 in tips, then add on my wage.

Sticked w my job. Just got a new job. Didn't have time for a true side hustle bc school, whatnot. Decided not to sell drugs just because
