What part-time 'second job' would you recommend?

So, as many others, I'm starting to feel the financial crunch from the economy, and want to pick up a second job on the side. I work 40 hours a week currently, and really am only looking to pick up maybe 10 extra hours a week somewhere. What is something relatively simple and low-key that I could do to make extra cash?

Try writing online from home. That's what I've been doing for about two months now. I'm not making a whole lot of money yet, but once I get enough articles out there, I hope to start bringing in a decent amount of extra income.

I currently write for:

Asker's Rating:
• This is a good idea that I hadn't thought of; I'm actually a journalism major so this would be easy for me. Thanks for the input!

Night watchman. Seriously. I have friends that do this. Depends on where you live, but it can be a fairly safe job; it's very low-key and allows you to read/study in between rounds. On the other hand you do need to be pretty fit and have a clean record.

im in the same rowboat as you are... except i dont have a job lol.
so heres some insight on how I went about picking up a part timer/temp job.

1. night security/gated community guard
2. nighttime gas attendant(barely working)
3. online surveys(i do a few here n there, thanks to fellow MA users)
4. baby sit(my last resort in which i found to be pretty beneficial)
5. be a black/brown belt on MA and pay yourself.

hope this helps!
good luck!
