This is why it’s often better to work as a contractor instead of an employee.

As a good independent contractor, you can charge as much as you can get and not 8 hours per day.

Bingo. I do consulting and will work for several clients at the same time during the day. All my customers are aware of it. As long as produce the contracted results on time and on budget everyone is happy. If a customer was to oay me exclusively to be on site for them alone it would be theft if I was working for another customer on their dime. It is sleazy. But honestly, it has never come up since I have been self employed going on 15 years. If I had an employee I paid to work for me and he was working a side gig on my dime it is straight up theft as far as I am concerned.
