Sometimes I wonder... would I even want the kind of high-level, demanding position that traditional career paths push? Overemployment lets me earn well without sacrificing all my free time. Anyone else rethinking the hustle = success mindset?

Yup agreed. Why kill yourself to climb the corporate ladder for a measly raise and exponentially more work when you can stay under the radar and make way more than that raise would get you? Corporations hold so much of the power over their employees. This is one way for us to take our power back.

Additional Posts in Overemployed

I’ve been on the bench with J1 for about 3 months. I was worried that because I couldn’t find another project, I would get laid off so I found J2, which pays more, is very meeting heavy, but I really like. I’ve kept J1 because I’m still on the bench doing absolutely nothing and getting paid. Thinking about looking for a role on a project with J1 that’s not along my career path but will allow for me to do work with no calls so that I can manage both jobs. Does anyone have experience or advice?

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.

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.
