What's your side job?

Side Job

I'd like to say that my day paralegal job is my side job pending a return to flying because my heart is there. But, that's not accurate.

Somehow, I believe that oilcanbland was just wondering what pilots do as second jobs. I've heard of pilots who work part-time in retail, work in restaurants, hold down desk jobs at FBOs, really, anything. Web design, too.

I had Mesa flight students who worked as substitute teachers in the Farmington, New Mexico, school system. Surprisingly, it doesn't necessarily require even a Bachelor's degree to be a substitute teacher in some school systems.

One of the best side jobs I heard of is a pilot who is an L.P.N. Somehow, I understood that he/she either was an agency/registry nurse or had shifts scheduled around his flying. Some nursing jobs pay very good money.

On that subject, I was speaking with an emergency room physician the other day. He was telling me that there is a nurse shortage. Coming from someone whom I regard as credible, I believe it.

Ahem, GENTLEMEN (FDJ and Boeingman):

I have no idea what this is about, but if you two are going to rumble, take it outside in the alley!

Now, who needs another cold one?

Yeah . . . .

Once again, oilcanbland wanted information on side jobs pilots hold.

I haven't figured out yet how this simple question got diverted.
