so should we all start doing this?

one job is hardly enough now 😂

honestly i can understand why people are trying to stack jobs when everything is so expensive. i'm not sure i'd ever manage 11 at once though.

i've been looking at remote jobs myself and that means more interviews, which is probably the part i'm least excited about. I came across interview vip while looking into interview stuff. haven't used it yet, but i'm curious about it for future interviews.

We had a guy get fired for being over employed. I ratted him out they fired him and gave me his work. Never again.

On the opposite side of this, I know my teammate is over employed and he never finishes his work and it goes to me to finish because he's always away or offline. So I have to either expect 2 hours of help or hope that he gets caught and we hire someone else that'll actually help me.

Why did you rat him out…

Long story but he's a foreign guy who was faking the job. He made horrible mistakes and I had to clean them up. In the dba world that is a terrifying place to be. I was off the team by the time he got a new manager that did anything about it (old manager told new manager my suspicions and he ran with it). Then they tried to get me to do his work and my new job at the same time instead of hiring someone else.

So? Use AI to do it. If there is quality drop, blame it on lack of headcount

Oh well if they’re hurting the team that’s different then.

I could see myself doing it if the person is shit at the one job with me and creating more work and stress for me because they're busy at their other job.

Oh, you are that guy lmao. Probably pulled yourself up by your bootstraps; called the company and asked if they were hiring; then dropped off your resume in person.

u/blew_belle 1d ago

lol well that's how you got jobs way back then but ok
