Guys,
look at it this way, if your a mechanic, and you want some after hours work, say "i am a mechanic and will work after hours, mates rates"
Like its been said, its not about who you work for, its about what you can offer others, ie, see above, if you use your employer /compant to do it so be it, but its what You can offer.
This is about networking like minded people.
