When I worked in telecommunications, people would often ask me to moonlight for them. And when I had finished my 2 hour of work for them, they would give $5. WOW!! $2.50 an hour. I could make 10 times that amount working over time. Yet, they felt that they were doing me a favor. And they would never think of paying me more than $5. And then, I was committed to maintaining their telephones for free for the rest of my life. And they couldn’t understand why I didn’t moonlight more.
