Trimmed down, leaner and easier to read - ti's much of an improvement.

Struggles great, but to what end?

Her decision will constitute a single scene in act one, what will be her main action in act two? What is her over arching goal in the A plot?

>>>struggles with her decision to stay at the job

To reiterate, a logline is a brief summary of a plot. ?And plots are not about deciding to decide; plots are about what characters do. ?Specifically, a logline describes the action that follows a decision the protagonist makes by the end of the Act 1.

Example:
In a dystopian future, a girl volunteers to take her sister's place in the annual ?"reaping" of youths by a dictatorship for a gladiatorial fight to the death.
(The Hunger Games)

"The Hunger Games" is not about Katniss "struggling with her decision". ?It's about the struggle after she makes her decision.
