Isn't it alarming how I just signed a month contract that I'm probably going to dump at the end of the week?
You did what? Where? How? I don't believe it. Why would you dump a contract you just signed up for?
I'll feel like crap. It happened to me two times before.
Some contracts require its terms to be fulfilled completely or you may suffer a penalty for leaving that contract early. So its expected that you stick to this contract to avoid any negative repercussions.
Do you really know this from experience or just rumors?
You had a contract, and those are important to follow through with. Everyone knows that, so be prepared to have a fine to pay for the cancellation. Otherwise keep at it to save yourself some money with no fine to be paid.
