I accepted lowest salary offer in my life a long while ago.

The employer was clearly lawballing me knowing my life situation.

I accepted and continued search. In 2 weeks got an 2x - proper offer from another place.

The lowball company forgot to make me to sign an employment agreement stating 2 weeks advanced notice.

So I left the very next day after casual email resignation email to boss.

It was fun to listen to his nervous tirades about me needing to stay two weeks and just hanging up on him.

Karma knows it way back.

Do what you got to do.

Sometimes it's ok to patch your life situation with what you've got - but always striving for more.
