I've seen it done onsite.
There was a guy who worked an 8-5 job in my building and the building next door simultaneously. He would show up, look busy, then run next door and do the same thing. He did this for about 8 months before one of his managers caught on and told his other manager. He ended up losing both jobs at the same time.
- LambdaComplex 9y agoI feel like it's kinda impressive that he managed to keep that up for 8 months. What were the two jobs exactly?
- snarfy 9y agoSoftware developer!
- pkaye 9y agoThere was an engineering director at one of my previous workplaces that was a little hard to reach. People though he was attending high level meetings including his reports. One of them called him once during work and he answered by the name of another company unintentionally. They spoke with HR and through some investigations found out the guy was coming to work and during the middle of the day going to his other job at a startup where he was the CTO. They fired him of course.
- freestockoption 9y agoHow did he answer the phone? Something like: "This is Mike Smith with Widgets Corporation" My greeting is usually short: "Hi, this is Mike."
- pkaye 9y agoI would guess the former since he got caught.
- convolvatron 9y agoi knew i guy that did this, one remote and one on-site. the remote guy ended up finding out and called the on-site company asking about him. so he lost both jobs. but oddly, the on-site manager felt guilty mentioning it during reference checks, and he went on to be a fairly well paid manager.
