Where are some of you experienced techs finding side jobs? I need to
get some side work for extra money, but having a hard time finding. Any
suggestions for an experienced, yet young tech???

If you as a good honest worker have established good rapport with your
customers (your primary employer's customers, actually), you may find out
that they need some work done in areas that your employer company does not
offer. For example: it might be the case that your primary employer does
not offer removal of abandoned cable as a service and you might just know
your customer's facility in and out to be The Right Guy to do just that
job on weekends. This is just one example and there could be plenty other
things that you can possibly do for the existing customer WITHOUT crossing
the conflict of interests line. Just be careful though. If your employer
is open minded enough, it's better to ask them if they are OK with what
you would like to do for THEIR customer.

Another point to consider: while doing the extra work you will not be
covered by your primary employers worker's comp insurance.
