Yes, only once, because at the time I felt I didn't have the choice. It took 3 weeks before I started a new job, and I didn't have any money saved up. As a result I became behind on a couple of bills which really killed me and made it very difficult to catch up - even though I was only behind for one month.
So my recommendation would be to find another job before you quit your current job. The best scenario would be to have 3 months worth of salary saved up.
Good luck.

Yes, the Navy sucks so I cut 2 years off of my enlistment. I didn't expect them to let me go, so I hadn't prepared anything. I was unemployed for 4 months and then landed a job doing the same thing I did in the Navy for 5 times the pay.

YES! I worked at Wells Fargo and it SUCKED! I hated the way they cheated and lied to their customers. One day I left and never came back. I didn't give notice or anything. I found a better, more fulfilling job a few weeks later.

I totally had a summer job one year and quit in th middle of my second day! I hated that job, but would not recommend doing it!

I did it once. Didn't want to do it, but I had to back up my principals. It was the scariest month of my life, not knowing if I would get a job in time for rent and food. But in retrospect, I have no regrets. I did what was right and didn't comprimise my principals.

Yes. I was working for the city bus company in austin, texas called Capital Metro and just wanted to try something new. I didn't work for 5months and then after that I was tired of being broke and my kids were wondering why I didn't work.

No. I would not recommend it unless the situation was unbearable. It's much easier to get a new job when you are currently employed.

Yes a couple of times, it may make things a bit more difficult but never impossible

Absolutely yes. Life is too short to be miserable, and it is really hard to go on interviews, etc. while working.

Yes. There are times when that is the best decision. However, not normally.
