Hello,
I currently work at a large company and I have not been happy with my job for a long time. Today I heard that there would be a re-org and I am being moved to work on things that move me even more away from my core competency of software product management. I am not going to waste my time on worrying about "project funding" and "operations" which basically means sit in meetings all day, show some slides and get nothing achieved.
So I am thinking of quitting, taking a short break and putting all my energy on finding something else, either here or remote. I have been off and on looking for a year and came to several final rounds but it did not materialize. This casual job search doesn't seem to be my thing so I need to focus on it, and learn some additional skills with my time.
My wife is working too and has health benefits, but she is talking about switching too. So for now, even if I leave, we will have coverage through her job.
I just want to know that in case we both leave (unlikely but want to plan for), how do we get health coverage? I have never been in a situation where I didn't have health insurance, so wanted to know what to do and what the ball-park costs are for a family of 4.
