I salute the bravery of everyone in this thread. In my 25+ years of working in tech, the hiring market has never been worse, and it was really, really bad for a few years of that career. I know talented ex-coworkers who have been looking for a job for 2+ years and had to resort to stocking shelves at Home Depot while they kept trying. Right now, I don't think I would have the courage to even quit a job that I absolutely hated.

So, you people who are leaving without another job lined up, just chillin' at home: My admiration goes out to you. GL guys! You're braver than I.
