Default Side Jobs?

Do any of you guys/gals work on days off? Do you have enough days off time to make an extra $10,000 a year from a separate job?

That's a pretty broad question.
I mean, if you have some sort of job that pays $2K a day, then it would be pretty easy to make an extra ten grand. If you work at McDonald's, it probably won't happen.

What do you guys do on days off?
How many days off do you have a month?

Stock Market! Micro, Day, and Swing trading. You can even do this on the days you DO work. $10,000 is only $50.00/day of profit after trade commissions. Totally feasible.

I don't have enough days off to work a full-fledged side job, so if I so feel the need to work on them, I pick up open time for a little extra cash.

10 days min. off/month, and I chase my hobbies on my days off (mountain biking, skiing, etc.).

I do some website and computer course design on the side, it adds an extra 20k/yr. Not a bad gig if you know how to do web stuff, there's plenty of work out there too.

Opentime! 2nd year FO and I can easily make $500 picking up a two-day trip. Did just that for May and I'm down to only 15 days off...but up to 92 hours credit.
