Elected official's job status is defined by statute. Money is irrelevant.

This is often a matter of serious debate. For example, in New York legislators are considered part time, so they are permitted to operate businesses or be employed while in office. This creates an appearance (at a minimum) of conflict of interest in many scenarios. Full time employees of government generally need permission by the appointing authority to do meaningful outside business.

This applies to any government employee. A janitor on government payroll generally needs permission to work for a company that cleans offices at night.

That was me. And $95,000/year is a pretty good salary. Don't forget the free room and board on top of that.

Not sure if it's relevant to the point, but Trump is donating his salary, Kennedy did as well, Hoover refused a salary and Washington tried to. I don't believe you can judge whether a job is 24/7 or not by the amount they pay you.
