Im currently a Product Manager, soon to be Sr. according to my boss. But I don’t think I’m actually good at my job. Big strategy leaves me a mess of nerves and it’s not healthy long term. Previous 10 years in marketing roles, but would get bored at that overtime. I’m feeling stuck like I have no idea where to take my skills next, while still getting paid with wfh benefits. Anyone been in this spot before?

Hi Fellow Fishes! I need some urgent advice. I had accepted a job offer at a really good company with a good role and team. I am due to start that new job on Monday 30th Aug. Now the thing is I have a better job offer from one of my dream companies-i would be really stupid not to take that offer. So I would be declining the job at the first company just 2 days before i am supposed to start! I know its a good problem to have but a very unpleasant conversation with them. How do i soften the blow?
