Listen Later

Today on the podcast, Mitko (@mitkoka) is joined by Isaac, the founder of Overemployed.com. If you haven’t heard of over-employment yet, strap in, because this is wild. Overemployment is the idea of having multiple full-time jobs as a knowledge worker. At the time of this recording, the over-employed subreddit has over 135,000 members that earn top salaries from 2 or more full-time jobs without their employers having any idea.

During this interview, Isaac shared how he stumbled into over-employment and why he decided to start the website and Reddit community, the most jobs he’s ever heard someone holding on to at the same time (it’s way more than you think), how to hide that you’re over-employed from your boss, and how people manage to juggle so many full-time jobs at once.
