Thoughts on quitting my job right now that I stress about 24/7? No new job lined up, talked to a few recruiters. Currently working from home which just makes the job more stressful.

Don’t do it. Get another job lined up or wait for the economy to stabilize a bit.

I’m not worried from a financial aspect of quitting my job. More so sitting around with no job due to corona affecting some companies hiring.

This makes zero sense. Quitting your job with nothing lined up lands you exactly into the issue you're supposedly focused on here: sitting around doing nothing while companies are affected by coronavirus in hiring

Same boat, but trying to hold off until I have a better idea of how corona will impact the economy and job market.

Can you take a week vacation to think about it?

Don’t do it. Even if they lay you off/furlough you the boosted unemployment lasts only 4 months and averages to the equivalent of making 45k a year, at least in NY. Unless you’re in the medical field, TV entertainment, news, or Tech then it will be extremely difficult to find a job for the foreseeable future.

Don’t quit.

Anyone really struggle with lectures? I find it challenging to do online trainings when I have to listen to an hour of a recording of someone talking over a PPT.

I always end up 2x speed, which helps, but even then I manage to get distracted. I find it way more efficient to read materials on my own.

If anyone has strategies to make things like this more bearable I’m all ears! 🙏🏼
