    Your assistance is needed, thank you

    Hello OptiBoarders,

    I value your opinions and need your help with a situation that I would like to entertain. I need to increase my income since my hourly wages and time are maxed out with my current employer. I was thinking about becoming independent and helping the 3 O’s by providing them with temporary employment relief for the non-working hours that I have available each week. Before I even consider this adventure, I would like to get your professional opinions along with any comments or suggestions by having you fill out a survey that I have created.

    Please click on this link


    P.S. I appreciate your time and help, thank you!

    P.P.S. Dear Steve/Moderator: I read the rules for the forums and think this is acceptable because I'm just asking for opinions, comments and suggestions of my peers and I am in no way advertising. If this is inappropriate please notify me or remove the post. Thank you kindly. :D

    Would this not be some kind of conflict-of-interest situation?

    I think he means if you work at your 'regular' job and part time doing this. It may end up being a conflict of interest.

    Ahhh, I understand now. No, it would not be a conflict of interest. A lot of people work 2 jobs.

    Its a good idea of doing temp work, but isnt the hours that would be needed the most, the hours that you'll be working at job # 1?

    No, not really.

    I've had a few places call me on the phone asking me to work evening hours, 6-9 pm which is not the time that I am at Job#1. <--just one example

    I haven't seen your survey yet, but basically are you asking whether or not you should get a part-time job?If so, i think you should.

    It will help me figure out what people are looking for. I know I can call around and ask but I thought I would start here first. I like learning from the best!
