Every situation is different, and none of us can reliably predict the future. Sometimes dealing with a bad job until you get a better one is the right move. Sometimes it's the wrong move. Specifics, about the job and yourself, matter. If you feel like sharing, this is a pretty good community with good instincts. The magic in "all it takes is for one to work out" is in the strength it gives you to keep trying. Trying something that might fail is hard, even when we know that trying is the right thing to do. | ||

My point is that, at least anecdotally, certainty is rare. Most of the time, for most people, the experience is less "yes!" and more "I guess." More widely applicable advice would be how to deal with compromise, not how to hold out for "the right one." | ||
