To me, its all about respect and trust.  If your employer feels there's a
conflict with your outside job, then there may be other issues you want to
consider.  and vice versa of course.

Openess is important, even as to what you are earning on the outside.  It
may be that the openess will help your employer understand your skill sets a
little better and you'll get some cross-set skills.

Gary,

I'm with you on this one. I am an employer and can state that what an
employee
does on their own time is none of my business!

Depending on where you live, employment agreements that restrict ones
ability to
apply their trade are not only unenforceable, but illegal.

Now, if said employee used company assets, auto, cell phone, lap top,
programs,
to perform their extra curricular activities I'd fire them and sue their ass
off.

Once we agree to this, we can get along just fine and go to work.
