There are times when the responsibilities of multiple jobs can make time pass quickly. I have had times when I have become distracted and lose focus, so time seems to be dragging.

Everyone has their own way to reset focus and I find that music really helps. Since I am proudly Gen X, I really lean into Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, and AC/DC, which I play very loud and sing along.

How do you reset focus if you're distracted?

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.

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?
