Job security is something everyone wants to hear, especially if you're overemployed. To have one less worry while juggling schedules and projects helps with focus.

Do you believe that job security can exist in more than one industry? If so, which one?

Let’s talk poverty in BigLaw! Do you think it exists?Have you heard of any stories that would indicate some partners in your law firm are living paycheck or paycheck?

Still haunts me to this day.

Additional Posts in Overemployed

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??

I wish I was overemployed. Searching for gigs, but nothing yet. Any tips on how to get one or more extra jobs?

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.
