I did a short term contract once at the same time as my main remote job. I never lied about my hours or got overpaid though. I won't ever do it again as it was a hellish amount of work for a few months. For me the cost of context switching on my productivity was higher than I anticipated. Of course you could probably get away with having two remote jobs at once.... for a while. Unless you're monstrously productive, it seems like either it would get noticed eventually or you would get burned out. But everyone is different I guess. I'd rather have a life that isn't so stressful and complicated.
