I’m pretty sure that was a joke (but maybe yours is too?).

  It's a ha-ha-only-serious joke. Overemployment definitely exists - there's a whole r/overemployed subreddit with 174K members, where people routinely post about the 2-3 jobs they have. And I (eng manager at a FAANG) have seen fellow managers post about what to do about reports that they find have multiple jobs. I'm not endorsing the practice - it will get you fired if one of your employers find out (although maybe its practitioners don't care, they'll just get another 10 jobs) - and it's pretty ridiculous that it exists. But it's sort of the logical outgrowth of late-stage capitalism where the only thing that matters is securing the transaction that puts money in your bank account and actually doing the job that you promised to do is secondary.
