I finally made it to a place in life where I’d rather be where I am and homeless than leave for some job
Comment on Gave him an offer, then took it away. Thanks PayPal.

This is why you don’t plan your life around a job. Plan your job around your life.

That sounds like a very privileged mindset to me. Most of us don’t have the resources to have that luxury.

Never had privilege; I’ve just been fortunate enough to have an emergency fund. Took me over a decade to save enough, but I have enough now that I could go 3 months without a job.

For those who haven’t reached that decade of saving, they are still at the mercy of their jobs.

Care to explain why you would think only the privileged are the ones who tend not to put the cart before the horse?
njm1314@lemmy.world 1 day ago
The mere fact that you think it’s a choice for most people is why I think that.

If you’re as far along as the guy in OP then you’re being irresponsible to not be looking for a place to live. Dude got the job and had it pulled from him, this would get him unemployment in California at least

As someone mentioned already, wait until actually signing the contract before moving. It is not “privileged” not to put the cart before the horse.
