I have two gig jobs I work and am debating on if it’s worth it to go through the vpn rigamarole to fool the second gig job - for the job security etc.

If there can be serious legal ramifications besides being fired I want to know before I decide.

I was fired and given severance. But I was very up front with them about my travel situation. Originally they told me it was ok, but after a few months, they changed their mind.

I wouldn't budge on going back to the states, so they looped me into a round of layoffs and that was that.
