Getting a second job...

Hey, Not sure if I'm in the right area but I'm sure I'll get told 
I have 2 weeks left at college before I will only have to go back for a couple of exams. I'm not going to uni in september I'm having a year out.
At the moment I'm doing approx 20hours a week at a well known supermarket and they will offer me more when I've finished college I think. However I'm also thinking of getting a bar job for on the nights.
Anybody have any opinions? I know from a tax point of view I'll have to pay more on my second job so will it be worth it?
Thanks;)

Barwork is low paid, you cant get the hours you want, shifts often end late at night so expensive taxi trips home and they encourage you to spend your wages inside the bar.... Having said that, its alot of fun
Just not really a money spinner.
If you are looking for easy but highly paid part time work maybe become a model for an art class, a medical test subject or take on something more skilled - eg, customer service ops at a call centre or some data entry work.
If you get the chance, jack in the store job and get something FULL time.0
