Can a teacher be a private tutor on the weekend?
Can a hairstylist do hair on his or her free time?
Can a chef cook for private parties on his or her own time?My old company criticized me and accused me of doing work on company time because of my linkedin account and then when they fired 3 people and my work tripled the CEO actually said to me "if you have time on the weekends to do freelance work then you should be here doing our work" and my response was "will you pay me extra for the time I'd be spending here?" This wasn't an agency though, part of the reason why I don't want to work for an agency.
What you do on your time is your time. I detail on all work agreements that I work full time and do not use company time (full time job) hours for any freelance work though I am available before and after normal business hours.
- Well no one said it was fair. But I embrace your idealism and applaud your thorough biz practices.luckyorphan
