This week's Top 10 Opportunities
Issue 869, Mon 9 November, 2026
Dear Escapees,
Seven in ten Brits say having a routine is important to them. Not the sort of statistic that makes for a particularly rousing career change poster, but it does feel true.
There is a lot to be said for knowing roughly what Tuesday is going to look like. The café you like. The colleague who sends you something funny at 11. The meeting that always runs ten minutes over. Being able to make plans for the evening because you have a reasonable idea of when work will finish.
Even an exciting new job eventually becomes your normal job. The laptop gets less shiny, you stop needing to ask where everything is, and six months later you are just having a Tuesday.
So maybe Tuesday deserves a bit more attention when you’re looking for your next move. Who are you with? What are you actually doing for most of the day? Do you have enough left in the tank for the other bits of your life you quite like?
Anyway, ten jobs below. One of them may contain a Tuesday you’d be quite happy to repeat.
Happy Escaping,
Team Escape
