I make the choice to endure job insecurity because I believe in the strategy and see it and an outsized opportunity. Also I've never had a 'secure job', but I've assumed in most cases it is naive to believe ones job is secure, either big company or small company. Stuff can happen quickly and arbitrarily. Just what I've observed. And based on the data in the OP study, I'd rather be employable and unemployed than unemployable and employed. This is what drove my initial comment. edit (add relevance to article)
