OK, but when you do a runner, make sure you have enough resources to survive on your own until you find another job. Even staying in a cheap hotel and eating out each day can be quite costly.

Agreed. I have had to live in a cheap (100-120rmb) hotel room for quite some time in China and it was not pleasant. Hong Kong would be even more expensive.

It is better to always think these things through, it can literally be out of the frying pan into the fire. I am toughing out my current gig as I only have 3 months left.
