Ready to give up the rat race and move back home.

After three interviews and then a background check I got a verbal offer from a department with a December 1 start.

I have done 9-10 interviews since September. I am tired of doing job interviews, and tired of jumping through hoops for employment. If this job doesn’t come through I am just gonna divest from the job market altogether: sell the house, and move back in with my parents. I don’t wanna keep working for my current employer and I also don’t want to do anymore multi round interviews. I’m checking out!
