second jobs as FO
I start training soon at AE, but was just wondering the FO's here if any of them have second jobs. Not just other flying jobs (instructing, ferry, etc.) but jobs such as bartending or a business out of their home.
I was seriously considering this but want to know if its do-able or better yet practical. Knowing that I'll be living on Ramen noodles for a while is fine, just want to make a little extra coin to pay of some debt and so I can enjoy monday specials of $9 beer nights downtown chicago.
p.s. I do really want to fly as much as possible my first year.
.02 are welcome

Pick up open time from fellow pilots that need/want more time off, or pick it up from the company (especially if there is a bonus for doing such a thing). This allows you to only have to worry about one job, build more flight time and experience, upgrade faster, and make some extra cash with minimal hassle. Unless you find a real honey of a 2nd job, it will be hard to beat just flying a little more.

Im still flight instructing and but not making much money, so on the side I am starting to valet park cars. Its nice! Only work 4 hours a night but make up to $200+ a night. Schedule is flexible so you dont have to work till 2am and then fly at 5am. Check it out.
