Overemployed

[Bad Dude]

There’s a new hustle out here where ppl secretly work a second completely remote job and boost their income by 50% to 100%

I wanna say I actually work maybe 3 hours out of my 8 hour day most days when I’m at the crib. A few meetings here and there and then a lil delegation here or there. I usually start my day off around 6am and schedule all my emails to go out at certain times of the day, then I go run errands or some shit and just answer calls here and there.

So I was talkin to an old colleague and he was like, yea I picked up a lil remote contract job payin $75 an hour for the next 6 months. He plans to just set both his laptops up and just manage his projects just like that. I’m like damn, wtf is the difference anyway? If you in project management, you manage multiple projects any damn way. I might fuck with this man. I’m sure there are other industries that could be similar.

working 2 jobs is considered a new hustle?

Yeah it’s a good hustle but conpanies are cracking down since there’s a tool the credit agencies use to detect employment.

For example, equifax fired a couple dozen people for this exact thing, here’s the story: https://www.entrepreneur.com/busines...nd-jobs/437263

If you’re certain your company is still productive and they would have no reason to check, you’re good.

I couldn’t do this because of the nature of my job but this sounds awesome.

It's working 2 jobs during the same hours.

So, not working 9-5 M-F and having an overnight or weekend gig. This would be working 2 jobs 9-5 M-F.

I work remotely now, but I couldn't do this well enough to keep up my metrics.

ohhh specifically during same hours... i get ya

i have zero background in anything called project management though so this seems pretty specific to people with a certain education.

Man that’s crazy, but I can see why equifax of all places would do that.

I can see it as a huge security risk too.

Such a terrible reflection of “capitalism”

American capitalism is quite possibly the worst version of economic sustainability outside of Leninism
