I recently quit my job that I was at for 5 years and moved out of my hometown to a new state with no job.

Upon moving, I found a remote sales position that I did for about 6 months, but I ended up just quitting and never logging back in because sales jobs suck. My problem is that I want to continue to travel and live in different places. My initial plan was to just work remote and not have to worry about constantly repeating the job process every time I move, but finding a remote job (one that isn’t sales) has been impossible. I needed to start making extra money, so I recently accepted an offer for a local office position, and now I have this huge burden over my head, because the employer was telling me how much they value long term employees and honestly I don’t plan on staying for longer than a year or two.

I haven’t even started the job and I’m already dreading the day I have to put my two weeks in. I wish there were more opportunities for temporary positions, and I just wish that it was more acceptable to not be at a job for a long period.
