I was able to reproduce this issue at https://joi.dev/tester/.

What are you trying to achieve or the steps to reproduce?

When chaining multiple calls to empty(), only the last call is considered. Here's a simple example:

// Schema
Joi.object({
  testA: Joi.string().empty("a").empty("b"),
  testB: Joi.string().empty("a").empty("b")
}

// Data
{
  testA: "a",
  testB: "b"
}

// Expected result
{}

// Actual result
{
  testA: "a"
}

The workaround is to pass an array to .empty(), which works as expected for all values.

// Schema
Joi.object({
  testA: Joi.string().empty(["a", "b"]),
  testB: Joi.string().empty(["a", "b"])
})

// Data
{
  testA: "a",
  testB: "b"
}

// Result
{}

What was the result you got?

Only the last call to .empty() is honored.

What result did you expect?

I expect calls to .empty() to "stack" like other methods. For example, this works fine:

// Schema
Joi.object({
  test1: Joi.string().allow(1).allow(2),
  test2: Joi.string().allow(1).allow(2)
})

// Data
{
  test1: 1,
  test2: 2
}

// Result
{
  test1: 1,
  test2: 2
}
