Moonlighting Pays, But...


On Sunday, The New York Times looked at the pros and cons of moonlighting while trying to hold down a day job during a tough economy.

The article offers readers one basic question to consider before signing up for more work:

“Ask yourself what tradeoff you are willing to make for that second income in terms of lost personal time, performance at your primary job and your stress level,” said Eileen Blumenthal, a coach and managing partner of Rocket Science Coaching and Consulting in San Francisco.
It also considers whether a second job could pose ethical or legal conflicts with a primary job and whether you should tell your boss that you’re planning to work on the side.
