In response to Chris Hall's last comment:

You could wait to get laid off like many of us
experience freelancers did :)

I freelanced for 3.5 years after I got laid off and
there's more money, more freedom.  There are the times
you don't know when you will work again.  But hey,
there will always be other jobs.
