Lookback: 4 years of hiding my second job

“Decline conference invitation due to work conflict”

I've been hiding my second job from my marketing employer, afraid of repercussions

What I wish I knew
"I should have been honest about my second job from the start"
If I could tell you one thing
"Be honest about your work situation to avoid future conflicts"
