Nope.

Just breaking the selection bias for this thread.

I drive for Uber on the side. Thought about doing restaurant work on the side, but I like the flexibility that Uber provides in terms of my schedule.

It's definitely best in my market in the fall and spring, so I tend to drive more during those times. It would be miserable as a full-time job, but as a side hustle, especially since I've been doing it for a few years, I know how to make good money quickly in my market.

Definitely think it's helped my small-talk skills as well. While I prefer to be quiet when I'm taking an Uber, y'all might be surprised how many people want to talk.

My wife gave me the side hustle because all I do is fish and make furniture ti give away. So she put me on a quota of cutting boards.

I work offshore and work a side hustle, but it's not for the extra money. I paint houses on my days off, like actual house painting, not killing people for the mob.

There's something therapeutic about doing a mindless activity. It's a change of pace from what I do offshore, where I have a lot of responsibilities that require some intricate thinking.

I umpire little league baseball. I’ve done some travel ball tournaments in the past, but the difference in parents between the two is pretty drastic. If I blow a call in a LL game, I probably won’t be assaulted in the parking lot. It’s a fun gig and I can bet maybe $500 a month from it.


Can't fathom how anyone umps baseball games for kids with the way parents are. Kudos to you for doing it.

I just lead share in my sales job. Get $1000 to $2000 for every deal that closes.

Just send the rep a text with contact info and they direct deposit into my bank account once their system goes live.
