How ethical do you find people who work these “overemployed” jobs? I’ve seen people who work in Tech work 3-5 jobs at once and have a TC of over 400K?

If companies can lay you off over Slack, I don’t see the moral crisis in collecting multiple paychecks while doing what’s asked. Ethics didn’t seem to matter when folks are getting laid off left and right. So I just feel like it's hard to demonize someone for figuring out loopholes for greater job security and comp

Agreed. Also, what about all those c-suite folk who are on multiple boards of different companies?? Why are they allowed to essentially work multiple jobs yet the commoners can’t? Seems a bit hypocritical to me.

What about people who work minimum wage jobs and have to do 2-3 to make ends meet? It’s the same principle as long as you’re providing the value you’re being paid for.

You came on fishbowl to complain about this, but it’s cool that Elon runs DOGE, SpaceX, and Tesla? Or any of the countless leaders on multiple boards? Or the unethical ways companies lay people off, cover scandals up, etc.,

I wish I could do it.

Good for them for being able to balance everything and feel okay with possibly getting caught one day.

If I had their skillset, I would totally do it, too. But I would only be able to handle it for about a year before I quit one of the jobs.

I think the thing that bothers me about it is that people are working multiple jobs during the same hours which is impossible. You can't be putting in 40 hours a week at every single one of your jobs simultaneously. So you're basically just collecting paychecks and that to me is an integrity issue. I get doing what is best for you and your family but it can really put you in a sticky situation if they find out.

TLDR: Getting over your ex of 2.5 years ghosting you after they said they wanted to reconnect.

I was dating someone for about 2.5 years and then we broke up because of COVID and the long distance was making it too difficult to continue. The break up must’ve been like a 4-5 minute FaceTime because I was very distraught. After we broke up, she started seeing someone else but I was heartbroken and it’s taken me over a year to really get over everything and process those feelings. (Cont.)

It’s an executive director position, so I would assume it’s a decent target bonus, but without that in writing it could honestly be a gift basket at the end of the year. Is it a red flag for them to not share this? His total comp could be less at this new job…
