Does anyone have experience with balancing two remote jobs? I currently have one and I've seen people talk about having two and am wondering how feasible it is

It’s doable, depends on what time zones you work out of and making sure your performance doesn’t decrease in your current role. If you’re salary and work on average 20 hours a week or actual work, it can be done. But be prepared for an additional 20/30 hours of work from the second position.

Yeah I have friends that did that but they were so burned out. I rather build passive income streams from niched job boards but there are other ways it’s just what worked for me

I totally get it, passive income is so dang elusive it feels easier to just nab another job. But it seems like the remote work sector is VERY limited in comparison to how it used to be

This is a high risk strategy, lots of people get fired for being ‘over employed’.

My AD coworker (not currently my partner) just got hired at a new agency and wants to bring me along as his writer. I'd love to join. He told the recruiter at that agency about me and sent my book. I also have another former coworker (creative) who put in a good word for me.

Should I reach out to the recruiter, too? Or is that overkill after two recos? I don't want to be bothersome. But I do want to show interest..

This all happened on Friday, if that matters. Thanks!
