My Boss Isn't Happy About My Side Hustle

[Music] brought to you by the every dooll app start budgeting for free today me and my husband where I'm baby step two we're trying to pay down our debts and um hopefully get into a new house in the next like year or two um but uh we kind of run into a bit of trouble uh we both have our primary jobs and we've been trying to each take on a second job but um our first job both giving us some trouble um like I work in healthcare and it's kind of you know called Moonlighting like it's a big like they really frown on it they don't want me to work a second job but like I've got debt to pay down and my husband is working real estate on the side and when he's on his lunch break taking real estate calls his boss is like in the corner of the cafeteria stalking him Golly Wow we've got a very interesting situation so I think we you know there's no conflict of interest in either one of these side hustles yes or no is there some sort of real true conflict no um I guess my question is how can I approach or um work with employers like do you have any advice for employers I have one I do I do but I have one more question and then George if you need a fact find here so you're a nurse um actually I work at in medical coding okay great I'm sorry I I I I was jumping ahead so you're in medical coding and and and what are you doing for the side hustle uh a second coding position but just a different shift for another company I love that you're giggling like you're getting away with something I'll address that in a second this is so funny okay and your husband does what what is his job uh he works in it and he's selling and he's selling real estate uh in the morning early at lunch on his lunch break and then after hours oh yeah cuz he works nine to five and people do too so okay so here's the deal you guys just have it feels like maybe some unhealthy leaders but you guys just need to shut your mouth feel like you're talking too much or being a little too obvious I wouldn't be doing real estate calls in the cafeteria in first of all you're not doing anything wrong it's just lunch hour yeah so let's just be clear you're not doing anything wrong so I don't the audience to think oh Ken's giving somebody advice on how to sneak around no but let's also have some common sense and and if the boss is is stalking him and doesn't like the fact that he's got another job first of all it's on his lunch hour so if I'm hearing the truth and we're not stealing from the company then go out in the car turn the air conditioning on or go drive somewhere and sit in the parking lot of Chick-fil-A for crying out loud or whoever and and and make your calls so it's nobody's business business so stop talking about it and go do it you you have the right to work as many jobs as you want to now there's a thing going on George in America today where people are working two full-time jobs I call that professional polygamy that's not okay all right but that's not what we're talking about Lyra am I right yeah this part time well the point is is just go I'm I'm this isn't affecting my job at all and just make it a non-issue stop talking about it they don't have to like it like you're not breaking any you know moral codes you didn't sign a contract saying that you couldn't do this so unless you're actually violating a company policy yeah it's really none of their business okay so just be quiet about it just move forward with confidence yeah I don't know what my co-workers are doing at lunch some of them do side households they're doing video editing or designing something or doing real estate I mean and we're all okay with that as long as you're not infringing on the normal work hours it's not unless your work is you know hurting because of it that's when a leader would get involved and say Hey listen you're not performing your KRA where very well what's going on yeah but this is not happening right Lyra we've got all the facts yeah we're not stealing from company time yeah you know what uh here's what I've learned and I learned this the hard way you know some people can get real catty uh they can get real nasty when somebody's trying to make their own life better and their life sucks and feels like you've probably just been normal and kind of shared what you're doing and then other people like did you know what Lyra doing she's working another medical coing job while they're smoking sigs on the back dock am I right okay then so what we do is is is we don't hang around vultures and it sounds like you got some vultures in there and all vultures do is fly around looking for some dead carcass to pick to death and and they're just nasty people and I think you're you got some nastiness around you and so what you're doing to remove the debt from your life is awesome it's going to make your life better I'd start hanging around better people and if your co-workers are like that this is a message for everybody listening and watching today stop talking to people that are negative and nasty and backbiting just ignore them just ignore them all together if they've got a problem with you working a second or third job to get out of debt that's a sign that you shouldn't be talking to them anyway cuz they're losers and I'm just being honest today there are winners George in life and there are losers you looked at me directly when you said the loser part I just want to call that out I'm kidding but the other piece of this lra of the financial aspect is I think you guys might be doing some things out of order you're saying I'm trying to say for a house really you need to knock out the death first then get a fully funded emergency fund then you can begin the process of saving up for that down payment and I love the intensity that you have to do that uh but we just need to make sure we have our ducks in a row here before we try to do seven things at once and do them poorly yeah uh I want to go back into something George because I don't want to miss the psychology that is is so powerful from the people that we spend a lot of time with and the the audience in this show is trying to do something radically different right it's weird and weirdness tends to get some a lot of com flashback so even on your own journey I mean you know I just want your take here what's what's the key what's the mindset key when you're trying to take on a journey like this you're like I'm not doing anything wrong I'm just getting a second job and my boss is stalking me yeah I mean I did many side hustles when I was trying to get out of debt or save for a house whatever it was while I was at ramsy and I would go home and I'd just get to work and I'd shut up I didn't need to talk to the co-workers about it if they were you know if they were a friend I'd tell them U but there's another great resource can I just uploaded a video today on 20 side hustles and I rank them with an S tier so a through f is the best for some reason so
