Good point Mark,
I've had the same question. I explain that I contain my STC work to
weekends and some evenings so that it does not interfere with my day
job, and that the time spent doing it pays off in terms of gaining
knowledge used for my employer's benefit.

FWIW, at one job interview I had to backpedal
fast when the interviewer said, "All this volunteer
stuff, STC and so on, doesn't it cut into your
workday?"
