I’ve been working two jobs (at one point 3) for the past 4 years. Honestly it’s pretty easy.
One job is a cloud engineer on an all Indian team at very large financial institution. These fools shut down at noon my time, so basically I do nothing past that point unless I have a project to catch up on. My boss is an Indian dude in Cali, once the IST workday is done he’s basically done, he doesn’t give a fukk that it’s like 11am his time.
The other job used to be for a large vendor doing network consulting but I quit once they started threatening layoffs due to Covid. Now I’m with a large VAR doing pre sales solution architect bullshyt. It’s basically just sitting on calls all day and going to lunches. The random on-site meetings and lunches are getting old though. I’m looking to replace that job soon with a gig that’s more progressive and completely remote, I have interviews coming up this week for some companies.
The one thing that’s interesting about this VAR is they don’t have a realistic view of where they are technically. We have these all hands calls and they talk about all the investments they have made in the cloud and building up their skill sets and offerings. They say stuff like “we are at the bleeding edge of cloud modernization” but in reality they are YEARS behind the shyt we are doing at my other company. I don’t say anything because I’m not on the “cloud team” there and I don’t want added responsibilities. So I just let em rock
Put it like this, I’ll never work a single job again. The trick is managing your calendar so meetings never conflict. I block off time so people can’t double book me. I then removed all permissions from my boss and other teammates so they can’t see what the actual meetings are. They just see busy, tentative and free.
