Overemployed newbie here. Do folks only work at jobs that are in separate industries? If there’s a stipulation in the agreement that says you can’t work two jobs, is that something I just disregard? Am I being an unethical idiot here?

It would be smart to work in different industries just to avoid a lawsuit. In my situation, my J1 is an insurance provider while my J2 is an mobile telecommunications company. Both these companies headquarters are in different coasts and the chances of anybody knowing anyone in those companies is slim to none. Let’s say though that I work for 2 competitors in the same state or region and get caught. Then your employers have a stronger case against you possibly sharing inside knowledge etc and can sue you.

Additional Posts in Overemployed

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.
