Leave, I'm still in it and desperately looking for another job. But, if you can afford to go, do it 100%.

If you're not happy where you are and you have an offer somewhere else, you might as well go. I don't see what the advantage would be of waiting a month. If you didn't have another job lined up, that would be a different story, in that case it would be good to hang on to the job, even if it's awful.

Technically the school gig is a job, although not prestigious but way less stressful and more flexible..just a lack of benefits. I keep bouncing back between pushing thru this job and dealing with upset clients blaming me for issues daily and higher ups micromanaging or going back to the school gig
