Not me. I was making
J1) 195k
J2) 198k
J3) 228k

J1) was working 4 hours a week last year of it.
J2) got canned. Damn boss was a psychopath. Literally convinced he hired me as he had something going on the manager and really wanted to put her in charge but she lacked my resume, hired me backstabbed me then laid me off. Gave job to her after he told board I told you so and gave me a $52k severance check. Was super odd he canned me after only 5 and 1/2 months and gave $52k severance
J3) pretty normal

Companies force you to do this. I don’t put in notice old job till after I start new one ever. Then some firms make you wait a month for medical or have a probation period of 90 days.

By the time 90 days roll by and clear probation the juggling gets easy. Although I had staff at two different companies were weird.

It is a lot harder to get high paying remote jobs. At start of Covid had a 20k a month remote job. Was doing that in 3-4 hours a day.

I have had 5 jobs since 2020.

Reddit has great thread overemployment.

40 percent all remote people have a second job and are overemployed. You’re sitting alone by yourself so easy to do.

How many Js are you working now?

Is there any way to do this if not in tech? I desperately need a second job.

[Anonymous]

Where does it say he got fired from any of them?

[Anonymous]

He wasn't in tech, he was in IT. Very different

All dept head jobs. More like risk, compliance, audit, fraud type roles. Which means very very very hard to get caught as literally I am the one looking!

I pick small firms that were fully remote then take the spot where I report directly to board or CEO which means I have no day to day boss.

I had exact same job title at one point in two firms in exact same business. I sometimes would try to do same project two places at once.

The three jobs one a start up was in San Fran, the other private equity owned in London and third a trust company in NYC. I had three different time zones. It is pretty easy to do.

I am currently now at one only cause I got canned the one job. Still amazed when HR popped up in “catch up” update call I was being canned and they did not catch me. I started almost laughing when they set they will send my separation agreement and severance package.
But
My J1 I loved as I literally did 1-2 hours a work a day and some days zero. But my J3 got more involved and was more in person so gave it up. I could have lasted at least 5-6 months more but I really liked them so did not want to drag it then get fired.

I may start it up again the six paychecks a month was nice, but it is nice now my kids and wife can tell people where I work and I can tell people.

Was fun and everyone was doing it in 2020-2023. Why do you think companies are pushing RTO?

I should have dine this, not that I need the money but it would have helped me not to give too much f*** with the toxic capital one loser boss.

I did this for a while.

At J1, I was very good at the work. At times, there was no work coming through and we could read books or whatever. Instead, I worked the second job.

They loved me at J1.

J2 was a really strange job at a shaky internet startup that went under, so I’m glad I had J1 where I was valued, had a cool and funny boss, and was treated very well!

J2 was part time, if I recall correctly.

Did none of those jobs require you to disclose your outside business activities? I feel like this would make it hard to hide having multiple jobs…
