If the work doesn't have much overtime, then it is a good idea to find a part time job or take up a night course. For those married people with young kids, then working part time is not advisable. Need to spend time with spouse and kids.
Actually working part time is a good way to earn more money and to save money. Some people love to shop after working hours, so working part time after work prevents them from spending.
I prefer a company that pays overtime, the overtime payment at 1.5 times is much more money than any part time job at night.

I'm used to doing part-time, I like multi-tasking and the extra bucks is a great help too. Like now, I am working full-time, 8 hours a day though I work at home, but I also accept writing assignments to add up to my earning. This is on top of my responsibilities to my 3-month old son since I am a single Mom. Yes, life is very difficult and I welcome any job that I can get my hands on as long as it won't hinder me from doing my responsibilities to my son. As I said, I badly needed the extra income, it's my son's future we are talking about here.

When I was younger, I had a number of evening jobs. I did part-time tutoring, consumer research and transcription. During those days, my full-time jobs were simpler with less responsibilities, and maybe because I was young, so had a lot of energy even after 8 hours at work.

It kind of depends on your set up. If you've got kids, then some part-time jobs are really ideal as it gets parents out of the house, makes a bit of money, sets morale for the kids and means that there's still time for family life when the kids are at home from school or whatever.
Personally, I need all the money I can get at the moment. I dont have kids yet, and I know that realistically my chances of getting a part time job that pays as much as a full time job are almost non-existant.
