Is it frowned upon to use a Virtual Assistant at your day job?

Like many of you, my real estate investment journey has started out at a side hustle while maintaining my W-2 job. For context, I work as a project manager for a real estate developer in Northern Virginia.

I have read about the benefits of using a Virtual Assistant (VA) to free up time and I would love to implement into my workflow. I am tinkering with the idea of using a VA at my day job to free up some time to focus on my side hustle.

Has anyone tried this? Could this create issues from an employers perspective? Is this ethical? Let me know what you think!

    @Lane Kawaoka I see that you are a practicing Civil Engineer. If you don't mind me asking, what kinds of tasks (engineering or project management) do use use a VA for?
