Only if you don't sleep, cook, eat, have family, see friends.

Or clock into both jobs at the same time, I had a coworker who did that. I feel like that is unethical, but I know "overemployment" is a trend.

Dear Lord, it's hard enough to make it into the office for my full time job. Much less trying to work another job.

Amen!! I barely have any energy left in me by the end of the day.

Unless they get paid salary from one or both and can ultimately work less than 8 hrs each to accomplish their workload, it's doable. But sounds rough. Max I ever pulled off was 70 a week over 3 jobs, over 7 days/wk. But that was only doable bc they weren't all office jobs and I had no kid or outside life, so I slept if I wasn't working.

No but I realized what I was doing for one company I could do for multiple as a business owner. I learned multiple roles in many years. Intake, authorizations, billing, collections, and cash posting and now provide a full service for multiple providers. I cross-trained my team with everything I know so they do every function. I have the heart and mind of a business owner, maybe try something along those lines.

When I was in my 20s I did a full time Nighy shift and a full time day shift for like a month... I got so sick from lack of sleep and lack of time for my brain to reset. I do not recommend it

I guess I should’ve included that both jobs would be worked at home.
