Two months' pay (even six weeks) would be enough as severance to get me to walk away right now. And I'd walk away happy. It would be just enough to give me time to rest for a few weeks and then find a new job. I'm so overworked right now that I don't have the time nor the energy to job hunt, otherwise I'd already be gone.

@1ign+1a8qOsLl. They are right, you know...
Post ID: @oxf+1a8qOsLl. Please go away. You are useless and stupid. 😳
@cle+1a8qOsLl only if you don't have any skills. If you're in software engineering, you could have a new job tomorrow.
If you're in a dying field like customer service, and are looking for a similar role, news flash, that role doesn't exist in most companies anymore because they've done what Allstate is fixing to do... So yeah, finding a new role would be a bit more difficult.
But in general, finding a new job isn't that hard unless you have zero skills to bring to the table or aren't good at representing yourself in an interview.
Unless you are a job jumper or are going to settle for a job in the food service or hospitality industry it takes much more than a month to secure a professional job right now. So much competition and companies are taking their time hiring more so than pre pandemic as there is so many more candidates to review and consider even if you are a perfect fit for a role they have to weed through so much to get to you and then there is the process from assessments to interviews, to consideration of qualified candidates, to background checks, to the actual start dates which seem to be in most cases a month or more into the future. Personally it took me 5 months from end of my 60 days to the first day at my new job and I sent in my application for this job I was hired for over 3 months before my start date and start of getting paid.
I have been looking while I work here. You can never be too careful.
Cool story bro
