I quit my last job without notice because I had one lined up (but it turned out I couldn’t start immediately) and in retrospect my rent situation would have been a lot better if I’d just scrupulously covered my ass for a month. And I’m lucky enough to have the kind of job where people call back within 12h of me submitting a resume but that’s exactly because I do the kind of 100% essential jobs that have a coinflip’s worth of shitty bosses and the kind of pay that leaves you paycheck to paycheck if you’ve had bad enough luck and/or life choices in a particular year. If you’re in a secure enough position in your life that you can just quit because you have a good enough balance of savings and demand for your skillset then please take a moment today and practice gratitude to whatever entity or lack thereof that you attribute your good fortune to.
if your relationship with your boss is this toxic, you should be writing a resignation email instead.
