Just as the purposes for moonlighting are different, the moonlighters cross all age and racial groups. And they work in a variety of industries---no longer just service，office and sales jobs. As its name means, moonlighting still occurs mostly at night. And that results in some pressures. Chief among them is time. Full-time employers could misunderstand, too. Some companies do not allow after-hour work because they fear it will affect their employees’ 9-to-5 performance. “The primary employer is saying, ‘Wait, I’m paying you for the sharp, fresh, energetic you,’” says Tom Gimbel, president and founder of LaSalle Staffing in Chicago. “If you’re burning yourself at both ends, it’s going to show.” Still, the good done to the moonlighters can be great. Besides extra income, moonlighters enjoy variety(多样性), freedom and chance to do something new. They also may find their part-time jobs strengthen what they do full time. Besides, “it’s fun,” Michel says. Not only do his part-time jobs offer a chance to network, stretch his professional skills and make more money, but they also give him the variety he wouldn’t find just in a full-time job. “It’s a way of pulling from the spice cabinet(调料箱),” he says, “and offering a little variety throughout the day.” 76.
