[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Never quit a job unless you have another job already lined up, specially with children. [/quote]

They have savings and it sounds like his job was extremely stressful. I would be very pissed off if my partner is a slave driver and only cares about a paycheck. [/quote]

No excuse for him failing to discuss this major life decision with his family before he chose to act.[/quote]

Agreed - so long as the discussion would have been about how best to get him out of the job and not to talk him out of leaving because of the inconvenience to the rest of the family. [/quote]

Yeah.  What if DW found her job super stressful and just up and quit?  How would he feel?  I would really just like to walk out of this place right now, but I'm thinking of my family while I'm sitting here.[/quote]

They're called SAHM.[/quote]

News flash:  not everyone can afford to live on one income.[/quote]

PP here.  Well, you may not have much choice if DH drops dead like my dad did.  If your spouse tells you that he is miserable at his job and you can see the toll on him, it takes a pretty selfish person not to be willing to work with the person to find a better situation.  And I stand by my assertion that OP's DH did not come out of the blue with this. Perhaps he "up and quit" because he did not think that OP was "hearing" him.  Based on her posts (and we only have one side of the story), that would not surprise me. [/quote]

OP here.  What you are saying is makes no sense.  Guess what??!  I also hate my job as well that doesn't mean I'm going to go and quit. Do you think Bank of America, Washington Gas, etc give a crap about whether you love or hate your job?? Of course not, at the beginning of the month they want their money on time, every time.  Yes he complained a lot about his job, but my job is no picnic either and I go through moments of saying maybe I should just quit and live off the government.  I'm sure a lot of folks would love to just walk off the job right now.

I was all for him finding a better job but not quitting like this.  I even emailed him jobs on a daily basis to apply for and he did get quite a few interviews but nothing came through.  [/quote]
