can I work full-time for two employers?

Answer 1

You could, but you wouldn't have much of a life, and you'd end up becoming exhausted. You probably wouldn't be able to do either job well, and would risk getting fired.

24 hours a day X 7 days per week= 168 hours

40 hours work + 40 hours work + 5 hours lunch (if 1/2 hr/day per job) = 85 hours
8 hours sleep/night X 7 = 56 hours
85+56= 141 hours

168-141= 27 hours for everything else associated with life, including commuting time. That 27 hours would include your showers, your grocery shopping, your eating, etc, etc.

Answer 2

Yes. Full-time is defined as working 30+ hours a week. If each company you work for accepts you working the 30 hours, that would be a 60 hour week. Technically, with one job, you could work 4.5 hours 7 days a week putting in 31.5 hours over a week's time. With both jobs, you could do 9 hour days, which isn't a big deal, especially if you wouldn't mind working 6am-6pm.

I'd say it's seriously a possibility as long as both employers are flexible.

Answer 3

Yes...if you're able to coordinate the hours and balance both without negatively impacting the other. If your performance suffers on one job because you are tired, the employer could terminate your employment due to poor performance.

However, typically you would be unable to if there was a conflict of interest clause and both were in the same industry...for example, working for Starbucks and Java City coffee shops at the same time.

Answer 4

I have. I used to work a compressed work week (3/4 -- 12 hours a day three for three days, and then the following week I worked 4 days/12 hours a day). I had a second job for 30-40 hours as an electrician working the days I didn't work at my primary job. Geez - no life but I brought home over $120K a year after taxes (sweet!)

Answer 5

Depends what kind of hours they will allow you to work. Obviously it would be a good idea to spread all hours out over 7 days a week instead of working 5 16 hour days in a row.

Answer 6

there are 24 hours in a day, you will devoting 16 to employment. can you survive with 8 hours to sleep, commute, shop, and live.

Answer 7

you can, but then you probably won't get any time to yourself, possibly no sleep time and you may be really tired when it is all said and done.
Good luck.
Depending on the times you have to work and how much time it takes to get from one to the other, you may be able to make it work.

Answer 8

you can if you have the time and one doesn't interfere with the other. Just make sure you file the right tax papers at each or you will be screwed up at tax time.

Answer 9

you can if you energy to work for long like 17 hours to work excluding , travell time , dinner, lunch time , sleep
