Westmoreland County deputy sheriffs are no longer permitted to work off-duty jobs while in official uniform and carry county- issued weapons, according to a policy enacted late last year. For the past eight years, deputies have supplemented their income by working security details at area high schools and at other events such as Pittsburgh Steelers training camp at St. Vincent College.

Public schoolteachers spend about seven hours a day teaching children to read and write, but their jobs don't end when the last bell rings. They put in extra hours after school, grading papers and developing lesson plans -- and after that many go to second jobs, moonlighting as store clerks and tutors to help stretch 200-day salaries to last year-round.
We have not been ethics purists on the matter of county police officers picking up extra money by moonlighting in secondary jobs. There are practical arguments for allowing it, at least for the rank and file. But a line must be drawn somewhere - and Scott Daugherty's story on Wednesday showed that it's time for police and county officials to start drawing it. The county ethics commission doesn't think police should be paid directly by businesses they are supposed to be policing, and has been particularly critical of officers moonlighting for establishments with liquor licenses.
Dear Heloise: In my years as a police officer, I took a lot of moonlighting jobs in retail security. In about 95 percent of the cases, when you find an item completely out of place, like a package of steaks with the canned goods in a grocery store or earrings in the underwear section in a department store, that item is there because the person who intended to steal it felt security was too close to get away with it. Shoplifters, for the most part, are well-practiced and well- trained. If they feel the heat, they'll dump the goods. They know they can't get busted for shoplifting unless they actually pass the checkout and attempt to exit the store with the goods. If they see an employee or an apparent customer (who may be plainclothes security) giving them the eye, they'll dump the goods ...
Years ago, Dan and Kelly Kissel of Evansville had the foresight to try to figure how much it would cost them to raise their then young son, Andrew, and daughter, Darby.

Paul Sutherland was discussing a potential house sale with a woman and her husband when he noticed something familiar. All of a sudden I'm recognizing her and I said, 'My son had a crush on you,' " Sutherland said. "She was a lifeguard at the wave pool when my son was young.
The complaint lists several cases of misconduct and crimes committed by officers who were allowed to stay on the force after their infractions (though some were demoted). The officers included: a black male officer who "notarized a document without a signatory present in 2001, a class I felony"; a black male officer who, "after facing numerous allegations of misconduct and criminal activity, many of which were verified, was caught moonlighting in two extra jobs during which time he billed both employers for identical periods of time in 2003"; a white female officer who "received a driving while impaired charge, for having a blood alcohol level at more than twice the legal limit, in 2003 for which she was convicted"; a white female officer who "pulled her service revolver on Kendra Simms...
The larger social impact of freelancing has been well documented, but what is missing is an understanding of those businesses that encourage or are enriched by the new "gig" economy. We know little about the businesses that prop up freelancers, simultaneously nurturing and feeding off them. In fact, we tend not to think of these businesses collectively as an industry. But we should. From consultants to self-help book authors to the rise of "co-workplaces," which provide freelancers with social interaction, an industry has developed that serves as both freelance cheerleader and parasite. It has defined the new gig culture, and it is time that we begin to understand this industry's place in our economy. Coffee shops are not ideal - many limit space and charge for Wi-Fi. To solve this prob...
