This is such a narrow world view that it becomes really hilarious when you try to say other people aren’t using logic.

What if someone got fired just because of a horrible boss? What if someone quit because of shitty working conditions? What if someone had to go on medical leave for an extended period of time? What if someones house burned down and they have to move away from their job? What if a work place becomes hostile? What if the business just closes?

This could be a literally endless list.

I’ve done (or had done to me) the first two and last two multiple times and his advice still holds. Not sure what you’re aiming at.

How do you have a job lined up in those situations?

You’re just lying.

I’m not lying. It’s how I went from making 36k to just over 100k in 6 years.

Yeah. That’s called “working.” That’s life. Get used to it.

It’s literally not. We’re talking about losing your job and NOT working.

I don’t even know how you could be so wrong.

No, we’re talking about looking for a better job while you already have one. Stop changing the topic.
