This is such a narrow world view that it becomes really hilarious when you try to say other people aren’t using logic.
What if someone got fired just because of a horrible boss?
What if someone quit because of shitty working conditions?
What if someone had to go on medical leave for an extended period of time?
What if someones house burned down and they have to move away from their job?
What if a work place becomes hostile?
What if the business just closes?
I had literally interviewed twice before I was laid off.
I believe if you consistently aim for a slightly higher position at other businesses, and aggressively grow your skillet, you can absolutely climb up salary levels.

This could be a literally endless list.
I’ve done (or had done to me) the first two and last two multiple times and his advice still holds. Not sure what you’re aiming at.
How do you have a job lined up in those situations?
You’re just lying.
I’m not lying. It’s how I went from making 36k to just over 100k in 6 years.
A job you had unexpectedly closed and you already had a job lined up?
You’re lying.
In 2018 was laid off at one job and hired at the next the same day
Both jobs were leadership roles making over median US income
My most recent layoff, this year, I had a new job about 3 weeks before severence ran out.
Neither of those were times where you had a job lined up before you left a company.
And do you honestly think those situations are normal? You can’t honestly believe that, right?

Okay? (I don’t believe you.) And do you think it’s possible for every person to do that. You keep not answering the most important question.
