I know you aint going to like hearing this... but why on earth would you QUIT without having another job lined up? Seriously, I hate when people do this and yes, I know people can be hard to work with but for the sake of covering your own *** you should have something lined up. Besides that, you are letting them win!

I wish you nothing but luck! However I just can't understand why people do this to themselves.

Yeah, I dont understand this either, especially if you drive a car that you can't afford without living month to month?

Seriously, if I were spending SO much of my income on my car that losing my job meant I wouldn't be able to make next months car payment, that means:

a) I wasn't saving enough of my money because b) I have too expensive of a car for my income and therefore c) shoudln't be quitting jobs without another one lined up because my coworkers are unlikeable.

First lesson in work I learned was have a place to go before you leave.

Good luck.

you should try Elixir or Coach.

Elixir is better to work for but pays less... my bro works there. Bud/coach pays better. Both are hiring CONSTANTLY.

I know for a fact Elixir just lost a couple guys.
