Ask for permission or ask for forgiveness in this case?

I've been unemployed for months due to covid and I pretty much have no savings anymore. Luckily I was able to land not 1, but 5 job offers recently. All of these jobs are remote.

With the new income I'll be receiving, it'll take me close to a year to rebuild my emergency fund. On top of that, I want to save up another $20k-$30k to get a computer science graduate degree debt-free so I can earn a much higher salary down the road. To both build my emergency fund and save for college will take me a minimum of 2-3 years.

In an effort to speed up this process, I was thinking about accepting 2 job offers and working both of them at the same time. One job, Job A, will be designated as my primary job and the second job, Job B, will be my secondary and "disposable" job (for any scheduling/deadline conflicts that cannot be resolved, Job A will always take the priority. Job A will never be put into jeopardy). Since I will be able to save 100% of the income I'll get from Job B, working both jobs will get me to my goal in <1 year with the added bonus that I'll also be halfway through saving up a downpayment for a house.

The only downside is that this arrangement isn't exactly fair to Job B from a moral perspective, but then again many companies aren't exactly known to look out for their employees either (in a previous job I was fired out of nowhere and with no advance warning just because another employee didn't like that I was younger and in a higher position than them).

I don't really care if I get fired from Job B because I wouldn't consider it my main job.

Given all this, a couple of questions:

1) Would you work 2 WFH jobs for 6mon-1y if it meant saving up your emergency fund, saving up for a master's degree, and saving up half a downpayment for a house in just 1 year?

2) If so, would you tell Job B that you plan to work 2 jobs or just keep quiet. Again, it doesn't really matter if you lose Job B or not

Thoughts? I really want to do this to help reach financial goals lightyears faster but I'm having slight moral qualms about this (but nothing that I won't ultimately be able to get over)


A few extra thoughts:

  • Job A and Job B are in 2 completely different industries

  • If I do this, I plan to use separate computers and separate phones while doing each job
