I was successfully employed at 2 full time jobs for 10 months then J1 found out and told J2. I just can’t figure out how J1 found out…. Any insights?

All social media was silenced. It def didn’t come from that, I used two different phones and two different addresses. The only thing the same was my name, birthday and social security number - which I couldn’t do anything about.

Really sorry about that - I wish you could contact someone from j1's hr to find out how they found out. Because I'm assuming they would have concrete evidence to justify letting you go

They somehow got a hint and then ran a background check.

Aw man that’s crazy, do you think there was any slip up at work you did that got them to notice?

Yikes! Did job 2 let you go as well?

Maybe an individual from HR was trying to set up something with the third party vendors and got tipped off to there being duplicate active accounts in their systems with the same social security number.

Is your LinkedIn profile active? Do you use the same phone number for both J's? Any shared contacts between J's?

I've been a dental assistant for 11 years , and I think I'm done . I feel the pay is never enough and 9/10 we do the most work in the office . It's never commensurate to what we do and no matter how much experience you have your still 3-5$ more than someone fresh out of school . It's a skill I'm glad to know that I can always find work but the burnout for nothing isn't worth it. Can anyone relate

Hi Fishes,

I received an offer (28 Lakhs + 3.9 Lakhs incentive) from Novartis for Sr Project Manager yesterday. This was just 13.6% more than my current earnings as Project Manager. I've given the reasons why I deserve at least 30% to HR. In response to that, HR has sent 2nd offer i.e. 29 Lakhs + 4 Lakhs incentive + 50k sign-on bonus. The 2nd offer is just 18.2% higher than my current earnings. Need your suggestion, if I could still negotiate with HR to finalize deal by asking for 25% hike?

How difficult is it to juggle a remote role with a hybrid role?

My current role is hybrid with at least two days a week in office. However, with the potential economic downturn, I'm considering holding on to the role to supplement my income.

I'm new to the overemployed movement, so I'm evaluating the feasibility of holding onto the hybrid role and the remote position.
