Ever fantasized about a job that didn't lock you away in a cubicle during the prime hours of the day? Or maybe you're interested in a part-time evening job because your day is full with other responsibilities (such as kids--or another job).
Whether you want to enjoy summer sunshine or you're looking to moonlight, there are plenty of non-9-to-5 jobs that offer mainstream pay rates.
Room to grow: Speech-language pathologist
A speech-language pathologist's work may involve treating children with stutters, adults who can't make sounds or speak clearly, or even people who want to modify their accents. It's a burgeoning field, one that the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) projects will grow faster than average for the next decade. With a master's degree and state certification, speech-language pathologists can earn just north of $36 an hour for full-time work, according to online salary database PayScale.com.
Work from home: Tutor
If you're a math wiz or you excel in English, you can put your skills to work part-time by helping elementary, middle, or high school students make the grade. Depending on your background, specialized training, or advanced degree in a particular subject, you could charge students $25 per hour and up for your services, and you may not even need to leave your home. With an online tutoring job, you can schedule as many hours as you want--and the most popular times are between 4:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m., when most kids are not in school.
Night owl: Radiologic technician
If you're not much of a morning person, you may enjoy working nights as a radiologist. Hospitals are staffed 24-7, and patients' needs for diagnostic testing such as MRIs, X-rays, and CAT scans don't keep regular hours either. With proper certification (usually an associate's degree), an MRI tech can earn just over $33 per hour.
Get physical: Personal trainer
Make your own hours, work with people, and stay in shape. Sound like a dream? It doesn't have to be. As a personal trainer, you'd have all that--provided you earn the appropriate certifications to work with clients. Whether yoga, pilates, spinning, or step aerobics is your thing, the BLS says you'll be in demand in the years ahead, and your earning power is at $25 per hour for a part-time gig.
Relax: Massage therapist
Licensed massage therapists work by appointment, which means they call the scheduling shots, whether they see clients at a day spa or at a health care facility. Masseurs and masseuses can specialize in any one of many modalities including sports, neuromuscular, or deep-tissue, and many choose to be self employed--which puts even more flexibility at their fingertips. Working part-time, massage therapists can expect to make over $40 per hour.
