Anyone else find the prospect of switching to a better job scary? (lemmy.ml)

I think it's that if the switching fails, I'll be left without any job and risk homelessness. And that the general narrative I hear is that "we should be grateful to have a job at all".

Since we last spoke, I signed a contract for a job where I was gonna get 30hrs/week, quit my other job and started working for this job. Boss told me today he doesn;t have enough work for me so my hours are cut to 15hrs/week. I get paid hourly. (So i’m screwed again financially atm, if you know some easy like remote job I could get into, let me know)

I’m was hoping the paper contract would have prevented this from happening.
