I work at a fast food place as a second job. It's been easy to set aside my pride when there's bills to be paid.

I'm a speech therapist for the schools, but I work part time for a local home health agency, and I schedule my patients after school and on the weekends. It's very flexible, and pays well, too.

For an IT professional, you could look at providing computer setup and support to individuals and small businesses. For instance, my grandmother knows just enough to do email, and there is a guy she calls whenever she has issues with her computer. Advertise by putting up flyers in retirement communities.
The contracting firm I work for just hired someone for a small project to set up a VPN, backup storage, and other related items. We have the knowledge to do it ourselves, but were too busy with projects for our clients, and so decided it was worth paying someone with skills similar to yours to do a small project. You'd find clients through word of mouth and maybe craig's list.

That's great, Maat!
I've had an unpaid 2nd job for a year planning and building websites. Doesn't sound fun, but it helped me break into a related field of Search Engine Marketing. I start that job in a couple of weeks. My side job will be freelance financial writing with my current company. They need the work and I need the income. If you're searching for side work and you like to write, I highly recommend pursuing online writing. It's been a great thing for me.

why a second job?
Time is our most valuable asset. Everyone I know in IT makes a pretty darn good salary. My wife codes in C# and makes just shy of 6 figures. What about just enjoying your time off? Life is so short, and in 10 or 20 years you'll look back and say...well...I sure did work a lot!

I wish I could. The generic labor up here is so scarce I could almost make more money at McDonald's than I do as a reporter.
But sadly, my job requires me to be available almost any hours.
