Waiting for the Perfect Job 👴🏼👵🏾

I was recently advising a young man outta college who has spent a few years learning a skill and looking for a job but hasn't landed anything. I don't blame him fully. It's a tough market out there, but his problem is not the economy as much as his narrow outlook on what a good job means. He wants something exactly aligned with his training with a clear growth trajectory. If a job is broadly within your training, take it. Once you have a few years of experience, you can be more picky, or even start your own business. Point is, any work is better than sitting at home for months or years waiting for the perfect gig.
