Say goodbye to your social life. I've had to work 2 jobs when I was younger. Thankfully those days are behind me.

Well. I worked 2 part time jobs a couple years ago. Being only 20 years old and needing cash I wanted to make as much money as possible. I worked during the day at a pharmacy, and delivered news papers at night or early AM - 7 days a week. Mix that in with the fact I was going to school full time and I can say it wasn't the easiest thing to do... But the money sure was nice. If you don't mind late night/ early morning work a paper route might actually be something to look into. I enjoyed it, and it paid fairly decent for what it was. Good luck to you!

Also, what are you trying to achieve? Is this a money issue? An attempt to network? Build a resume? Are you trying to bridge out and potentially change careers and/or start your own small business? Are you just bored? Dammit, man...I need answers.

I once worked 3 jobs for about 6 months. All I did was work and sleep. It sucked and it didn't do enough for me finacially to be worth it.
Now I've been doing a single job for 5 or 6 years and thinking about getting a second part time. If your second gig is freelancing then I assume you'd basically be setting your own schedule and such which would be much easier than punching two clocks.

I teach fulltime and work an additional 20 hours a month freelance as an educational consultant for a health care organization. It's pretty difficult to muster up the energy to work a second job, especially if it requires creative thinking and intrinsic motivation.
An ideal second job, imo, is one that just lets you go through the motions and do routine, clearly-defined tasks. Trying to do things like research, write, and organizational work on the side is difficult for me as I tend to exhaust those sorts of skills in my 9to5.

It is very difficult, I did it for 2-3 years. Be very careful you do not burn yourself out and slip on your perfromance in your main job. This happened to me and even after I quit the 2nd job it was too late to save my main job. Not a good thing at all.

The biggest challenge imo would be finding a part time job that actually pays enough to make it worth it.
Is it worth giving up another 30 hours per week for a couple hundred bucks?

I've been bar-tending as a second job for about 8 years now. No better way to go IMO.
