OP lol that old saying is BS it only applies to folks who are living check to check.
I resigned on 5/17 of this year and have a new job as of yesterday making about $220 extra per week. Trust God and trust yourself screw spending time at a job you hate.

Do they give you two weeks before they fire you or lay you off?
Point taken but now he has a bad reference for future employers.
LMAO well if they fired you, would you want to use that company as a reference? Like I'm sure you'd find a way to work around it.
Guess you could.

I got a weak ass business administration degree. My resume is on point, but still. For some reason, I been getting a lot of feedback from jobs that I'm under qualified for. I figured out that those job descriptions are wish list, even if they say requirements. These jobs shoot for the best and take who they can get. The Financial Analyst job I applied for says they require an MBA
But them fools contacted me based on my resume with my Bachelors and I didn't even apply for that position.[/QUOTE]
This part alone might warrant its own thread. I constantly apply for jobs Im not qualified for and still get hit back sometimes. My last job before this one I didnt have the required degree or experience, but walked in to an open interview and talked my way into it. Im the only person in the history of that company to work there without the required credentials.
People get intimidated by that wish list, but majority of the time, that application will get looked at just like any other.

What are you going to do with that degree?Did the same thing when I was 23. Quit my job, went back to school, and after i graduated was making pretty cool money and living comfortable.
Lost my last job though and pretty much had to start from scratchI'm working again and while it's not ideal it's full-time and I'm planning to go back to school for my English degree.

This strategy certainly doesn't apply to every situation. I have a wife and son. Couldn't even think of making such a decision. Whenever I need to leave a job, I will always have to make sure something else is lined up. Like others have said, if you don't have a family to support, I guess you could do this if you have something saved up for several months.
I've done this before. Unlike ya scared ass I have skills that keep me eating. Uncertainty is nothing new.Talk to me in month seven when you are facing an eviction, oh nm you wont since you wont be able to pay for internet

I've always wanted to walk out on a job.
I've quit a job before without having anything lined up (with two weeks' notice though); had some money in the bank to last me a few months. Damn near ran the clock out before I found a new one.
