I spend a lot of time brainstorming and iterating. I'm a voracious note taker, and often use voice to text notes so I can follow my best ideas. I'm a huge believer in the creative power of walks, and take walks multiple times throughout the day to help me actively problem solve

They say that walking specifically helps the brain process through things, like something literally happens when your blood starts flowing. Steve Jobs was a huge proponent of frequent walks throughout the day I guess haha so I started doing it too when I heard that and it really does work

The first rule of overemployment is dont talk about overemployment to anyone outside your house. :). Second: always protect the main job. Third: As the main job always has the priority, the Second and third jobs must preferably be contract gigs with not too many meetings everyday. Remember: another day, another dollar.

I really want to get a second job but I am scared of losing my current one. Both companies are in same field, although not direct competitors so I know it’s technically “not allowed” however, this is the only way for me to get that $$ since I am not paid all that well.

Of course I won’t tell a single friend/coworker. Only my partner. And I don’t post work stuff on social media.

Realistically what are the ODDS of being caught? Is there a legal/HR process with which they could find out??

Anyone have multiple FT jobs? I'm looking about to land a new primary FT job, as my current job is very very slow, doesn't really have any projects for me, and could end at any time (with a 30 day notice).
Where there any legal issues? (The two companies area in different industries so no competition). How did you manage both? The new company knows I'm still employed, should I quit the first or keep it as long as I can manage both? Any bad vibes or feelings of unprofessionalism? TIA
