Default Weird or not... secondary income, etc

I work as a software engineer, but have recently quit to switch to another firm for a little bit less money but considerably less work. In these 3 weeks lay over between switching firms it seems I can't play poker right.

I'm a slightly winning to winning player live, but since I quit, I'm either running bad or playing horribly. I can tell I am generally playing more scared than I normally do.

Anyone else experience this in between jobs (or being jobless)?

I don't. When you're jobless like me you have no choice but to play especially sharp =)

The worst thing you can do to your BR is to play scared.

If the money in play is not negligible, take time off until
it is.
