Working two remote jobs and the reason isn't money. It's that neither one uses enough of me

I know most OE people are in it for the money. I am too, partly. But the real reason I took J2 is because J1 only uses about 30% of my brain. I finish my actual work by noon and spend the rest of the day looking busy. J2 uses a completely different 30%. Between the two I feel more engaged than I've felt at any single job in years.

Is this what it feels like when people say they love their work? Because I don't love either job. I love the combination. And I'm starting to wonder if there's a single role out there that would use the full range instead of me needing to Frankenstein two jobs together.
