Hrmm. I get paid to do a job. The hours aren't set, which is what salary is defined as--I posted this already. Don't you think it's kind of a society thing that a salaried job must be completed in the 9-5 hours? Why can't one do the work outside of those hours--competently--and still be paid for it? And why is that unethical?

I guess the real question is, if I am doing both jobs correctly and my bosses are happy, who cares? The fact that I don't have enough work to keep me busy at my current job is a silly point--probably most people wish they had less work, and since I have less work, I'm not going to ask for more. Right?
