Pre job anxiety in this market?

Starting a fully remote job in a week and a half. I’m kinda still in shock tbh, but they needed a niche skill I had.

Currently waiting the remaining sentence of my 5 day in office job. Overall nice place close to home but I’ve been dyin to be remote again since 2020.

With how bad the job market has been the last 2 months, I keep having this anxiety about being let go leaving my current gig. Background check cleared, employment papers signed, going thru contracting firm. But I havent gotten an email or mail about a laptop. Scared to email my recruiter asking about the laptop too soon.

Just need a way to stop stressing. All the stuff I gotta do on my todo list are at home and I’m just dying to get the hell out of this office man

Am I crazy for turning down this 5 day role?

2 hours away 5 days a week. Yes my current contract is ending at the end of June but I’ve been interviewing for a job internally and right now it’s 5 days 20 minutes from home. But 5 fucking days hours away… I know I’m desperate but I don’t think I can ever be THAT desperate. I was open to hybrid hours away and sleeping in my car, but 5 DAYS?? I just don’t have it in me man, I’m already sick on my 5 day commute now even tho it’s 20 minutes from home. I HATE public restrooms, traffic, cold lunches, waking up crack ass of dawn, coming home to last minute dinners, I hate it all
