Antiwork

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Matthew Berman, an employment attorney who has emerged as the unofficial go-to lawyer in the OE community, hasn't encountered anyone who has been hit with a lawsuit for holding a second job.

Sometimes he wasn't able to book a conference room to take his Tinder and IBM calls in privacy, leading to some nerve-racking conversations out in Meta's open-plan office, where anyone might overhear him.

At its core, overemployment represents a new social contract being forged in an era that has left the old, unspoken agreement around work — "stick with us for life and we'll treat you like family" — in tatters.

Many in the OE community, in fact, have taken advantage of the trend by getting a full-time J1 that provides them with health insurance and then taking J2s and J3s that are contractor positions, which often come with higher pay to compensate for the lack of benefits.

Many CEOs have already grown suspicious of remote work, convinced that work-from-home employees are taking advantage of them, and reports of two-timing scofflaws only serve to confirm those fears.

From a traditional management perspective, the idea that experienced employees can finish their job in far less than 40 hours a week argues for either (1) giving full-time staffers more work or (2) replacing them with independent contractors.
