Have you ever pursued contract work while also working for another company? Does that become too much of a gray area/too risky? My job is not paying as much as I would like, but I enjoy it. However, I would also really like to do my own contracting with contacts have I made in the past. Would I need to disclose this with all parties involved?

Does your contract prohibit it? If not, you should be good to go...

I see no issue with this! So so many people do contracted work in addition to their day jobs. So long as you're not violating your contract or a non-compete agreement, you are well within your rights to do contract labor!

I would just check your contract. If it doesn't say anything about working for another company then you are good to go.

I have, yep. It can be a tricky situation to manage, as there is a risk of conflict of interest or taking too much on. I believe it is important to be transparent and honest with all parties involved about any additional contract work you are doing. I personally have had success in this area by ensuring I keep my commitments to my full-time job as top priority, and then using my spare time to work on the contracting.
