So, I work in e-commerce for a pretty large company. I basically list items online all day. Our goal is around 10 items an hour, which should be around 80 a day.

I’ve been applying for more jobs in my interest, and remote work bc who wants to drive into work every day? Just not too sure how to feel while I’m waiting for who knows how long.
