Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

Assuming you have some savings and benefits cover a decent chunk of your expenses, might be worthwhile taking a week or two off before starting a job search. Looking for work can itself be pretty stressful and your mind deserves a break.
I burned through my savings last year through a series of vacations and then some unforeseen car/dental emergencies and ever-rising cost of living
Ironically without my commute I might be able to actually save money, especially since now I'll have a lot more time to cook at home
