    Can’t you get another job? Here If I get fired from a job or quit I can go on the job seekers benefit which covers rent food and bills while I look for another job. I assume other countries have something similar.

        New Zealand. Technically if you quit your job you are suppose to be unable to get jobseeker benefit for 13 weeks but if you go to them and say that you cant afford to live they get you to do like 1 day of bullshit courses and then sign you up.

          Lol, new Zealand is on the upper side of providing good benefits to workers, not all countries have that. You’re lucky to live where you do!
