yes but the 2nd job would pay more than the cost of the chores. it's not an even split

Use the income from the second job to pay the maid to clean the whole house. Less chores for everyone. Still seems fair since the second job is a hobby job and not taken out of necessity. Let the SO with the non-second job pick up the slack on general house pick up like making sure the counters are wiped down, things are picked up, stuff the maid doesn't do.

I just cant wrap my brain around taking a second job just to pay someone to do chores around my house and not have any money left over.

There has to be a profit margin....

so how much you hate your job determines how much of the income from that job you should split? why?

that counts as "chores" in the hypo, so that spouse would be doing "more", ultimately
