I'm not sure how relevant the issue of an employer "allowing" an employee to have a second job is. In my experience the employers who stipulate that their employees are not to have other jobs are in the minority and such rules generally apply to senior staff who wouldn't be in the running (nor have the need) for second jobs anyway. Most employers have no problem with an employee taking on a second job as long as their work doesn't suffer as a result of it.
I was more or less talking about being on call for all hours rather than just being outright you cannot have a second job. There are a number of employers that want full availability (or as close as you can get.) If it is a second job or a first job (with the intention of getting a second) that could be a bit of a problem.

That's what I've been telling people here. Every application you put out you have to be flexible with the hours. If you can only work 3 days a week from 12-3, you aren't going to be taken seriously.

As mentioned, you need to either send PMs or start a new thread. This is not the proper thread to ask for career advice. Yes, companies will train. The ads asking for years of experience are not entry level. In most cases, they are either set up operator jobs or machinists jobs. There is plenty of info available online, as well as several other members who are CNC machinists who well never be able to help you on the 13th page of yet another "there are no jobs" topic.

Another thing about double even triple jobs is that these do hurt others because they can could be given to someone who is looking for a single job at the time rather than have two jobs per people in the lower end of the wages.
