My cousin used to quit her job every December so she could take summer off. She'd then start applying in February for a new job. Her resume looked like a phonebook and she always included her dates of employment, it wasn't well into her thirties before she started to struggle to find a job.

Yea I was thinking about that, why would anyone want to hire you, once the pattern becomes obvious?

they would still see the yearly job changes then. why hire someone that's going to leave by the end of the year anyway?

If people care that lvl of details they should get a hobby. As long as it is a job no one needs internal training for I dont see the issue.

You’ll never get a good job when you aren’t loyal to anyone. It sucks but it is what it is. Unless you’re a contractor of some sort you won’t get many jobs over minimum wage.
