Has anyone left their job without another lined up? I’m at my breaking point, and I'm not being dramatic when I see I need to quit right now. I have faith I can figure out the rest later, even though I don’t even have another offer. Am I making a mistake?

I haven't done this since I was in high school. If you've got faith in your ability to land something and have reached your breaking point, I'm not going to try to dissuade you. I just really hope you're being realistic and have a lot of savings tucked away because this job market is horrendous. I wouldn't even think of it with less than 6 months of savings set aside, but I'm also pretty risk averse.

My company blames my generation for not being able to hire everyday. “You guys don’t want to work” coming from some overweight, racist, old coaster.

I was able to work out a deal with my company before I came because of prior experience luckily, but they offer a terrible base salary and sham of a commission structure to new hires + no remote. Then sit here and can’t figure out why…
