RE Job to Supplement My Investing?

I'm torn between this job I'm not a huge fan of but makes a lot of cash to put towards investing. It's pretty tolerable but I'm trying to gain weight and it's hard when I walk routes every day. I've really been thinking about a property management job or something that makes less(hopefully not a lot less) and gives me real estate experience. The only problem is right now all I can really find is $11 an hour part time property management. I don't think it's really worth dropping to two part-time jobs but I can make whatever work if it seems like a better fit. I forgot to mention I'd like to do buy and hold but have been thinking maybe flipping if I get the capital because it seems like a fun way to get a lump sum of cash to put towards a rental property and maybe the rest into another buy and hold. Thanks in advance!

I like the idea of your getting a job to get some experience.  Wise move.  The property management job at $11 per hour sounds awfully low.  If it is entry level and you are a fast learner, perhaps you can grow.  Don't stay at that job too long, because you won't save anything.
