My boss wanted to leave too. We all did when shiz was hitting the fan. Many actually did leave. My boss and I actually chatted about our job hunts together for a while. When things redtabalized and the future looked brighter, we decided to stay put, though I expressed I was struggling to pay my bills. They said they saw value in me, so they gave me a raise and promotion. A decent one too, about 25%.

They're a great company. Everyone was very understanding, which is rare. Appreciate your advice though, usually that is the case!
