Default Qutting my job to play EQ full time

With the new progression server and Velious coming out soon I just can't justify working a full time job anymore, it is cutting far too deeply into my EQ playtime and my immersion levels are the lowest they have been in years. Today I am putting in my two weeks and will become a full time EQ player. So I just have some questions for the other full timers around here.

What do you tell unemployment so you still get a check when you didn't get laid off and aren't actually looking for work? I know here they want you to submit 2-4 contacts you made every month or 2 weeks, like jobs you applied to, interviews etc. Not sure if they ever actually do audits and check that stuff tho.

I obviously won't be getting laid as a full time EQ player so do you guys have any advice on what fleshlight knockoff will give me the biggest bang for my buck? (no pun intended)

Will add more questions as I think of them, thanks in advance guys!

Quit that stupid job!

The Game is fun, immersive, lovely, one of my favorites. I don't mind spending 8 hours playing on certain days off and playing 3-4 hours on days that I work. I however would never quit my job to play EQ full time.

This game would get stale so fast and as much as I love EQ and it's classic features, below would be a turn off as a full time player. The clashing of guilds at end game is kind of a turn off as far as serious progression is concerned. I like my serious EQ adventures, but on my terms, which are usually semi-lax.
