Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

I've never felt financially comfortable enough to quit a job without something else lined up

This has always been my problem, even when contracting. If something that seems better comes along we should be taking it, if it doesn’t work out, move on.

The other stupid thing I like to do is if I have accepted a job but not started it, and something that seems better comes along, I at least try the first one. By “try” I mean stay til the contract runs its course.
