What’s Your Side Hustle?

How do you bootstrap a startup while working a full-time job? It takes perseverance, some confidence, and a dash of hope.


By Larry Chiang


Bootstrapping a startup while working a full-time job is called a side hustle. Let us examine engineers who side hustle.

Yesssss. CS 183e. Lec 20. Talk to customers as a CS major. #ROTJ#cs183e twitter.com/yama/status/74…


I call doing extra work the 3rd silo. The third silo is slang for talking to customers. Because it’s extra work that qualifies as a form of distribution. It’s extra credit work and sometime crappy team members do not like it. Silo one is CYA (cover your butt). Silo two’s vertical of work is to “try to do a good job despite management’s effort.
