7. i'd stay where i'm at
and actively search for another job (or start looking at what are thinking of pursuing p/t) while still employed knowing full well you'll move on when you want to, not suddenly finding yourself unemployed and desperate for something else. You have the option then to go when you've put together a plan with concrete offers, not leaving just b/c you are unhappy at the moment. We are all unhappy at moments, and they pass.

this is just my insight. when i was f/t employed last, i still pursued the options and kept up with what was available, and it seemed there were more opportunities available then. Now those opps aren't there, and i'm just putting together p/t, temp jobs, anything i can get to make ends meet. I'm not suffering, but i'd rather be in a something more secure.

my 2 cents having been there when the jobs were abundant and i had one, and without one when they were scarce. And i'm also a curmudgeon these days and probably fos... you decide.
