[quote=Anonymous]Most tech workers do this.

DH is a data architect at his main job with his main employer, think a big company like AWS, Google, etc.

He's a 1099 worker at several smaller tech companies. He does different jobs at each of them. Maintenance at one, dev work at another, etc.

As long as he's not using any resources from his main job to do the others, it's fine. Yes, his boss knows. And his boss has several other jobs, too. Like I said, most in tech do. His 1099 jobs are done on his personal PC or in one case, on the PC they issued to him.

I don't think he could work two big tech jobs at once, like working at AWS and Google. There's no way he could keep up with those kinds of demands. But having 1 big job and a few smaller jobs has been easy. He's had no overlap conflicts or missed deadlines.

I work in finance. Things are so automated now that at certain points during the month, I have so much downtime. I volunteer with a local rescue group and do their finances (free, volunteer work). I also do the accounting for a few friends who own their own small businesses (these are paid jobs). AGain, everything is kept separate. I have my work laptop and pc, and my own personal laptop that I use for the volunteer work and the other jobs I do. I bring nothing from my main job to the other jobs except my knowledge.

I consider having multiple jobs as passive income, at least in my case.

DH and I are both technically millennials, but older millennials (born in '82 & '83).    [/quote]
