>"There are certain tasks I have like reviewing other people's work, so sometimes I will not properly review their work so that I have more time to work at my other job," he said.

This is fraud, and he deserves to be fired from both. There’s nothing wrong with working multiple jobs as long as both parties are aware. I was really hoping this article would be about how he works 75 hours per week to be a star employee, but instead it’s about deceiving his employers by pretending he can’t do the work.

Ironically, $150k isn’t even that much if he actually put in the work to become a top employee. He could make that in a couple years, plus work his way to a much higher ceiling.

it seems though that both employers are happy with him… therein lies a dilemma though - is it really fraud? we may think that it is because someone wrote an article about it but if both employers are happy he’s doing his job satisfactory enough. No reason for employers to know you are working 2-3-4 jobs, the only rhing that matters if each employer is happy with the output

Probably one of the reasons why the push to bring back the employees back, to take back the “independence power” employees have now.

The world isn't fair. Some people struggle to find work after being laid off. And would like to be valuable employees. But some greedy bastards try to occupy 3 jobs at once.

Karma works in mysterious ways. The dildo of consequences arrives not lubed.
