2nd Job?

Capt · Post by **Capt** » Mon Dec 05, 2005 6:07 pm

Any one know of a great second job in YYC? I am flying corporate and only fly about 10-15 days a month. I would like another job to kill time, but it would have to be a flexible schedule, as my flights change often. I generally have 2 to 10 days notice before i fly. Any suggestions? thxs.

Stuff envelopes with junk mail.

Or you could try being a taxi with your own car, driving strippers around. Pay's not bad. The entertainment value is priceless. Try contacting one of the three stripclubs in the city if you're interested, and if your car isn't a piece of crap.

I deliver pizzas (mostly to cruise and listen to tunes).

Pay where I work is $3 per delivery plus tips. I worked 2 hrs last night and made $40. Drove a whopping 34 kms. My CMA buddy worked Fri&Sat and pulled in $235.00.

Also try Direct Transport in the S.E. $13/hr but you need a schedule there.

In the summer, hit up Ornamental Garden Supply off the end of rwy25. Flexable schedule and the owners a private pilot to boot.

Take a bartending course if you haven't yet, and then bartend. Its pretty flexible, fun, and tips aren't bad either.

Have you tried:

1. Getting yourself a woman / companion?
2. Getting yourself a hobbie?
3. Giving something back to the community?

If you spend your life working no one will show up at your funeral. Life's too short for a second job, try doing something a little more exciting with your time.

Just when I thought you were mostly a comedian Desksgo, you pull this very deep life insight. You keep impressing me.

Desksgo is right. Paying bills is allright. Work is good, but too much work makes a pilot go dull...

Think about this: a normal north American spends about 1/3 of his/her life at work, another 1/3 is sleeping. This leaves 1/3 to do the things you really want to do (wish I didn't have to sleep so long or be grumpy...).

Cheers.

Construction companies/renovators/contractors are always looking for bodies in YYC. Check the ads in the Herald.

No sad wasn’t the right word, it just reminded me of how broke I am, and the fact the I am also searching for that first job as well. I almost forgot there for a second.

2nd Job?
