  • It may not meet the dictionary definition but I’ve considered moonlighting working an extra job, without necessarily telling your boss, but outside of regular work hours.

    But that’s kinda it: the act of working at an extra job, especially without telling your main employer

    In my case, I tell my hiring manager when I sign the hiring doc: “I’ve been moonlighting for 22 years. It’s as-available contract night work, and it’s always more lucrative than OT or standby so I’ll decline where possible. You won’t notice, but I’m mentioning it up-front.”

    And then I sign. If I need to cross out some weird “we also own your free time” clause, I will do so and call it out as such.
