Foolishness

What grown, responsible person, with kids and a household to support, quits a job without having another in place?

Someone on FB asked opinions today about whether to leave a job with great benefits that he hates. Most people said not to leave without having another job to replace it with, but one person - his wife - came on, talking about how she quit a job she was at for 11 years and found another one right away, with the grace of God, and that if he is confident in his abilities, he should go for it.

*staring into the camera*

FIRST of all LOL, Im all for stepping out on faith, but thats a personal decision that one must be moved to make on their own. You dont TELL somebody to go ahead and quit their job. Even if you are one of immovable faith, its just not sound advice. If his faith was as strong as yours, he wouldnt be on there asking people what he should do.

Second of all, you are his wife. Why didnt yall have this conversation at home? Why doesnt he know - if it is the case - that you are willing to hold down the fort until he finds something? Are you ABLE to hold down the fort until he finds something? And why are you copping an attitude with everybody on the thread who is low key calling you stupid for encouraging your husband to leave his job? Yes, its your husband and what yall do is yall business. He can make any move he wants, as long as you are okay with it. However, part of being an adult is dealing with situations we dont necessarily want to deal with, for the betterment of ourselves and our families, until such time that something better comes along. Why are you encouraging him to behave as if he is owed something? He's not being mistreated, he just doesnt like his job. If I had a dollar for every friend I have who hates their job or the people they work with, I would be a rich bitch. But they got better sense than to leave that joint, before they find something else. Strangely enough, some people actually light their lights at home to work LOL.

Ugh! I get so annoyed with foolishness. The bottom line, WIFEY, is that yall shoulda been talking about this behind closed doors. He should know where you stand and whether or not he has your support, then maybe he wouldnt have to be on FB making life-changing decisions. Heffa! Luckily he's got FB friends with a little more sense than you. *smh*
