jobs on the side

[jamie128]

Is there any job i can do on the side of my normal job for a bit of extra income?

I can pay money for courses to train me. I was thinking a PAT tester?

Is there any well paid jobs in demand i could get if i pay to do a course of some kind i.e. electrician? I dont like my current job.

If you don't like your current job and need extra money but are willing to pay for training, then a better investment of your time and money would be to train to do a job that you like that pays you more than you are getting at present.

PAT testing gets boring very quickly. A PAT tester is quite expensive and they need to be calibrated every year. There is also not alot of money to be made, some people are charging just 50p per item. Can you not get a job in a bar or something along those lines.

I guess it depends what you do now and what you consider well paid

The first may give a clue as to other roles that may suit you (e.g. you have similar experience to x) and of course the second point could rule in or out various options.

As above, I imagine PAT testing may not be interesting for too long, but of course it will be exactly what some would love

Edited to say 'on the side' may imply something illegal.
