Or in my case, do nothing...? Today, I managed to land a side gig in the oddest situation, have my boss offered it to me.
Turned out owner's daughter is starting a business and since daddy already has a fully staffed business with all the necessary departments, she thought to make use of it. There are just a few problems. First, we follow a different set of rules where all expenses are heavily scrutinized regardless of how immaterial they are. So no help there.
Second, after consulting with our VP and a couple of managers she threw up her hands and do not want to talk to them any longer because the subject just went right over her head.
The owner ended up recommending me to set up her books for her, on the side, with pay, and left it up to the VP to persuade me to do it by pushing the idea of how it would be a great jump start to having my own business someday.
So yeah, a very, very odd day.

I'm treating this as a learning rather than a money making opportunity. The money is just a bonus.
