Reply to ELI5: Why do people give the advice that you shouldn't quit your job without another one lined up? by tradice9
Because it’s pretty dumb to make yourself jobless if you don’t have another job for you to jump into right after you quit or give your 2 weeks.
You can only do that if you’re well off enough to quit & take a few weeks to job search while still being able to pay your bills.
You owe your current job nothing if you want to find elsewhere to work. Using them for money until you find another job is the smartest thing to do.

They’ve done something similar where profits were down & the ceo took a 50% pay cut to pay employees.

Yes, depression can be hereditary, but she had accused him of being violent before her miscarriage & multiple times after to her psychiatrist.
On top of the terrible “therapy treatment” she got, that’s definitely a driving factor in her suicide.

That’s intersting that her & the mistress died the same exact way… Plath accused him of domestic violence days before her second miscarriage. Her making sure her children didn’t die from how she chose to die shows me that she was clear of mind enough to not randomly blurt that?

Reply to ELI5 why is jury duty a requirement? by [deleted]
>couldn’t they just pick someone else
They are. You over the other guy lmao
It is random selection though & there are ways to get out of it. That said, just because you attend the detection process, doesn’t mean they’ll choose you anyways.
