The fairest advice I can offer is what was already said: Don't quit unless you have something else lined up.


Don't let people here scare you, the job market is not as bad as it seems. unemployment is high, but if you look at the breakdowns, there's no shortage of jobs paying 8-12 $/hr (essentially college student type jobs) that you can pick up to fill some gaps. People are unwilling to take them for some reason. You can make 30k+ a year working two part timers or working as a server at a decent restaurant.

There's plenty of money to be made out there, most people don't know where to look or how.


General tip for anyone who may be interested: Brinker Corporation pays assistant managers at Chili's anywhere from 35-55k a year depending on the store location and how it performs. I know several people who got jobs as waiters (you can make good money doing that if you're good and work hard) with Chili's and became managers after less than 2 years because they had the will and ethic to work for it. It's a job, but it pays well.
