1 month OE, want to share my experience

Hello guys, i've been OE for about a month and want to share my experience. about myself, i'm a qa engineer. personality wise, i'm actually a really anxious person, and really care about my work. OE is not something i usually would do. but i have to payoff debts quickly and etc etc. things are expensive nowadays.

Long story short I accidentally (or not really) end up OE, I got J1 and J2 at about the same time. I was worried about taxes or if any of them did a background check or they somehow found out. but so far so good. J1 is hybrid (1-2 days a week), and J2 is fully remote. J1 might now be ideal, but only 20 minutes from where i live. and they seem to be flexible with their time. so i thought why not.

Time management at the beginning was horrible. because J1 and J2 had similar onboarding time. and there were times where i couldn't respond quickly to J2 because I was in the office for J1. this gave me a lot of anxiety. but as time goes, i taught myself to be indifferent for these things. because i'm sure they have other things too than managing me. after a month, anxiety goes down a lot. i can manage time better and organize everything over the weekend for the next week.

For meetings, i use 2 earphones with the same color, so not too weird when i'm in the office. if its an important one where i need to talk a lot, i park my car near the office but not too close. i went there if i had a meeting for J2. i still have anxiety to what people think when i leave the office all of the sudden. but not as i used to.

Learning curves for J1 and J2. J1 thankfully not much learning curve. but J2 is something different. after a few hours overtime i'm able to catch up with J2. so far so good.

What i can add more is probably my ability to prioritize tasks. because i got tasks from J1 and J2, overwhelmed, don't know where to start, and end up doing a lot of overtime. it's been better but can be better.

I am quite grateful so far. tho, i'm not sure how long i can keep this up. first target is 3 months. i doubt i can do 6 months but lets see. i'm quite surprise at myself of how far i go. first week i thought i was about to die but here i am. money coming in this month will be mind blowing thanks to OE.
