Sorry if this is a dumb question, but with house sitting, is it expected that the sitter sleeps over? Also another question…

Hiring a house sitter with Rover. I just wanted to see if the expectation is that the sitter sleeps over or not?

Side question: those of you who house sit, what are some things that are nice to provide for the sitter? I want their experience to be as enjoyable as it can. We’ll stock the fridge and pantry, leave some cash in case something needs to be purchased, schedule a paid meet and greet beforehand, leave thorough instructions…what am I missing?

If it’s not gonna work, is it better to just quit, or to prioritize one job and wait for the other to fire you?

Just started OE. I took off two weeks from J1 for onboarding J2, but on Monday I start J1 again and literally every meeting overlaps. I don’t think this is sustainable.

The problem is I’m really desperate. I’m drowning in debt and have been trying to get a higher paying job/asking for raises for over a year now and have found nothing. I’ve applied to hundreds of jobs. I even talked to a bankruptcy attorney, but because of the ridiculous laws of my state, it basically wouldn’t even lower my monthly payments. Makes no sense.

All I could get was a J2 that paid about the same as J1. I felt like I had no choice but to OE.

I hate J1 and my coworker who thinks she’s my boss who I have the most meetings with likes to tattletale and complains about everything and loves meetings. Looking at the weeks ahead, there is just so much overlap. I feel like they’ll catch on or at least know something is up.

I’m really tempted to quit J1.

But, I was thinking, maybe I should hold off as long as I can, just keep making excuse after excuse until they fire me. Unless I’m missing something, or crazy bad luck, if J1 suspected I was OEing, they’d have no way of knowing where. Not the case with J2. They have my J1 from my resume.

So I’m thinking I just prioritize J2, and just keep pushing until J1 fires me.

Is that a bad idea? I appreciate any advice.
