After a longggg search receiving an offer brought relief but also hesitation. The offer is maybe not entirely right for me but it’s also the end of a difficult process. Outside of this market I want to feel excited for a job not just like it’s good enough.

I am to the point where I will accept anything that I've applied for, and I am applying well outside of what one might consider the "perfect" job, with the intent to keep looking for a better fit. The first piece of career advice that I remember hearing is that it's easier to get a job when you have a job.

I need to hear other peoples’ opinions/experiences! Do you actually work the full 40 hours a week? A lot of the time I finish my work before the end of the day and I’m not doing much for the remainder. This is part of the reason I would rather work from home. I get frustrated that I finish all my work but have to stay until I hit 8 hours just to check the box when I would rather be cleaning or doing my personal tasks. I feel like productivity should be measured instead of just time:(
