A New White-Collar Juggle Following is an excerpt:
"When job demands clash, moonlighters' day jobs win. Stefanie and Craig Miller
both work for the same big company, she as a customer-marketing vice
president, and Mr. Miller as a senior logistics executive. For much of
the past two years, the Atlanta couple has worked nights and weekends
starting a Units mobile-storage business on the side to avoid having "all our eggs in one basket," Ms. Miller says.
They
use almost all their vacation time to attend trade shows and other
events. When Ms. Miller was called on unexpectedly on a vacation day to
make a presentation at her day job, she had to scramble to find someone
to cover her planned appearance at a trade show. Mr. Miller sometimes
makes storage-unit deliveries
after work, driving the truck as late as 1 a.m. On weekends, he
sometimes takes his two older children, 9 and 7, along on deliveries."
