i was currently working last year vs i am currently working now

Both phrases have issues with grammar and usage. The first phrase 'I was currently working last year' is incorrect because 'was' and 'currently' are contradictory in the same sentence. The second phrase 'I am currently working now' is redundant because 'currently' and 'now' mean the same thing. It's better to use either 'I am currently working' or 'I am working now' for clarity.
