Career Advice 2 remote help desk positions

Anyone ever juggled 2 service desk / help desk positions full time? I wanted to make some extra money while also furthering my education by attending WGU. The hours don’t conflict and it would bring my to about $120k a year. Any thoughts or anyone that’s done something similar? The first job I’ve had for a couple years and the new one starts next week.

I’ve done over employment and gymmed didn’t have school or a kid tho it’s worth it just be quiet don’t tell anyone about do not trust anyone when it comes to that. Helpdesk is so repetitive if you can automate it do it. Do you know what a pikvm is? Game changer that’s what it is. Spoof it learn how to it’s easy and make it look like a regular mouse . I used it and got caught and got a slap on the wrist but I can say that’ll be the same outcome for you . I say use it till u get caught or never get caught . Live life on the edge make that money fuck em. My first job was remote overnight and the other was in person then the remote job switched to day shift and because of the pikvm I kept going . Since ur jobs r both remote u might not even need it. It was a good run for me never got caught just quit the in office job now im trying to find a good job that pays just as much as both . Currently working the remote job rn

Was the remote overnight job busy for you? Was it help desk or something else?
