Part time work during reserve?

Job Ideas

When I was on reserve I picked up two extra jobs just for some spending cash. The school district I lived near only required 60 college credit hours and no teaching experience to be a sub, paid $75 a day. Not that great of a gig though, you gotta put up with a lot of crap. I also picked up a job as a Valet with a company that parks for 9-10 different restaurants in STL and a few country clubs. Thats a good job, work at night if you dont get called to fly, drive cool cars, and make good tips. The boss's at my place were great too, I worked when I wanted, they never called me to bug me. Good luck......
 
When I was on RES and bid it intentionally with ACA I was used 4-6 days out of the month. I started a landscaping business and was averaging $30-$50 an hour cash. If the phone rang I could finish the yard I was mowing and get the rest the next day or in a few days. Get all the lawns on the same schedule and do 10-12 in about 6 hours ($35 each lawn average). It paid better than my CA job.

(Wish I would have never picked up a lawnmower and got the 1000 PIC.)

I hear gay porn pays well.




No Sh!t, I had sweet boy flight attendant tell me once that doing gay porn doesn't mean your gay. My response; unless it's a prison rape, if another guys schlong is in your spchincter, YOUR GAY!!
 
If your interested in sales, I have a great job for anyone. I own a full color digital imaging company, www.impactcolormedia.com, we specialize in selling full color business cards to businesses. It is the easiest sales job ever. They are already buying business cards, this product is MUCH better and the price is about the same. I would estimate you will close over 35% of all businesses you call on. I have full time reps making over 50K. As long as you continue to sell for me I pay commisions on the reorders (no work for you, all done online). Work whenever you want, wherever you want. If you get a call out while on reserve, just finish up the sales call and head to the airport.

Thats the good stuff. Now the bad stuff:
It is a SALES job....no sales, no money. Commision only. No salary, no insurance, etc.. It is what you make of it. It can be great, or it can be crummy. Once again, its whatever you put into it. It is however, a great product at a great price point, which translates into great sales. I pay well but don't expect to get rich, but you could easily exceed your FO pay with only doing this 2 or 3 days a week.

1000 turbine PIC ain't gonna get you to SW anymore! I got 1200 and then bailed. DOH!

My suggestion is if you've got a type and enough time in type try some contracting work on the side. Mine pays $250/ day + expenses.
