I’m not OE, but I wonder if helping classify which is your primary and secondary job may help to alleviate pressure you put on yourself?

That's a great idea! I agree that prioritizing is important to stay on task and perhaps taking a step back to reassess the situation.

Name the most ridiculous micro-managing by partners that you experience.

I’ll go first: MP told me that on initial emails, I am always to start with “Hello [name],” but after the initial email, I am not to address her by name again in the same thread. Initial greeting can only be “Hello [name] ” because just first name is too brisk and a “Hi [name]” is too informal. Had a 5 minute, in depth conversation as to why she prefers it this way…

The first rule of overemployment is dont talk about overemployment to anyone outside your house. :). Second: always protect the main job.
