I just quit and am planning on taking about a month off

I’m trying to decide between 1 and 2 months. I have a job offer and the company seems flexible. 2 sounds so nice right now but I don’t want to act like I’m not excited about joining the company either. 🤷🏼‍♀️

0. We paycheck to paycheck out here

Yeah same 😌

A month- but really depends on when the new job needs me. Some start dates are flexible but some do have a timeline

Honestly if your new company allows it (and you have the savings to have it be feasible), take the 2 months off. It’s so rare in life having complete free time so take advantage

None

1-2 weeks

I’ve never taken time off in between

Ayyyyyy

I never have. But I should have.

If I had a sweet nest egg, 2-3 weeks sounds about right if I can get in some travel
