Man Juggles 6 Jobs Like A Circus Act, Gets Laid Off Anyway
Meet Harrison, the Gen Xer who gambled on six remote IT jobs, outsourcing tasks globally like a CEO who moonlights as a magician. After a sudden gut-punch losing four gigs, he said, 'Three-quarters of my income was gone ā it really shook me.' Undeterred, he rebuilt with bots, freelancers, and sheer stubbornness to hit $900,000 again, pledging to keep 'looking' for jobs to avoid that nightmare. Because in the modern workplace, multitasking your career means youāre one layoff away from a family wedding no-show.
