Agree this is a problem. OP referenced his downtime, not that the co-worker was using company time for his side hustle.
My company requires approval for any secondary employment and signed agreement that it won't compete with company's business and won't happen on company time. They don't really care if you're selling MLM or have an Etsy shop or work retail on the weekends. Your extra job can't be with a competitor or going after similar clients or using company IP, though.
