What do people do for 2nd Jobs??

[XLR8]

Being a poor FO making $16,000/year, I was wondering what people do as a second job. Being on reseve and having Tue, and Wed, of this week, Fri, Sat, Sun off next week I was thinking it may be hard to find a job to accomadate to that schedule.

Anyone out there have an airline schedule and a second job? If so, what is it?

Fly Safe!

Hi!

I substitute teach on the side.

Each state has different requirements, but most are ___ hours of college after your HS Diploma. For example, MO is 60 semester hours of college after Diploma, which is typical.

When I lived in GA, you had to have a diploma and "SOME" (read-1 class at a tech college) college. WI is a 4-year degree.

When you are qualified to sub, as in above, you can do any subject. I do K-12, all subjects, for example: Japanese, Physics, some advanced Math classes I don't even know the name for, Choir, Special Ed, etc.

Where I live it pays about $100/day. Last year in STL it paid about $85/day.

The pay rates change by school district, and you call ea. district to get a sub coordinator to get on their lists.

You can generally tell them the days you're available, and they'll call you then if they need you. They sometimes set up days in advance if they know your schedule.

Any questions? PM me.

PS-I love Grade 3, HS girls, and Grades 10-12. My least favorite is Kindergarten, G9 boys, and Grade 7, in that order.

From what I have heard from other pilots, Home Depot is very flexible and will work around your schedule. I've known one pilot who works there while on reserve, if he gets called to work they let him leave.

Limosine driver has its advantages. You end up with a flexible schedule, without a lot of physcial work, and every now and then a big spender will cash tip you. If you live in an area where the use is common you can make more doing that then flying.

Watch out for the bachlorette parties they make the biggest mess in the car.

If you got one of them college degrees and some business experience then you can be a consultant. That's what I do. There are always companies looking for contract workers or consultants. Good money, too.

What kind of mess do those girls leave in the limo? Sticky or slick?

In the summer I cut grass and in the winter I paint houses. You can pretty much do both when ever you have time or days off. If you work hard you can make quite a bit of money.

Hello,
I throw boxes for UPS five nights a week for 4-5 hours per shift. It is an excellent place to work PT, and I'm hoping to get a PT supervisor position. UPS is great because the hours are very compatible with flight instructing and they have full benefits for PT workers.

Look into getting a couple of rental properties. Its an excellent part-time job and can be a huge revenue generator after only a few years. You can't go wrong in real-estate my friend. Just ask Donald Trump

I just finished filling out my 1040 form and can tell you that I made $17,352 washing King Airs and Citations on my days off last year. I usually washed planes only two days a week. Unfortunately I have to pay self employment taxes on all that this year. A CFI buddy of mine made fun of me for doing it until I showed him my paycheck. It keeps me in Ramen noodles, my cat in kibble and my 150 in 100LL.

Fly Happy!

Flying the ERJ IS my second job, the pay doesnt warrant calling it my primary.

Kaman, What does UPS start you out in terms of Pay?? You can PM me if you wish. Thanks

It's exactly like a reserve Officer. I have the same duties as a full time LEO (law enforecemtn officer) except that I only work 1/4 to 1/2 of the time. Not many departments will pay the reservist, but some do.

A great website is www.officer.com, check out the forums's there. Tons of information, do a search on 'reserve's'.

Good luck.

In the fall, I'm a football official for the local youth football program. It's $20 bucks to get trained and you can pull down about $250 each Saturday.

Good Luck
