Daylighting: Working More Than One Job at a Time

Daylighting: Working More Than One Job at a Time

By Dan Gould on September 30, 2008

CNN reports on a growing trend: daylighting. Kind of like moonlighting during the day, it’s the practice of working jobs on the side while you are at another. They give examples of a cocktail waitress who works on her graphic design business when sales are slow, and a salesman who’s brokering mortgage deals in his office bathroom.

People’s reasons for daylighting vary, from trying to live a lavish lifestyle to just trying to get by. As you could imagine, the HR department is not too happy about all this bonus work going on.
