I work on the support desk for a company with about 120 employees in the office.
I have been getting more and more requests from end users at my company for me to do paid work on their home PC’s for them. I’d be very interested in hearing how others have handled these requests and how the work has turned out. For discussions sake, I’ll leave out any questions about the corporate policy on “second jobs” as I don’t care that much about that aspect of it.
I imagine this could be a sort of “slippery slope” and maybe leading to some awkward moments with things such as software licensing issues and such…i.e. (“Could you please install Windows XP on my home PC???…well do you own a license for that?)
Also how does anyone decide how much to charge for their services? By the hour? By Project?
Any info would be much appreciated.
