I think that your article is in perfect alignment with this. Many people forget that work is ultimately meant to be empowering for the employer as well as the employee. When people consistently apply a survival mentality to their job search, they find themselves on a treadmill. At the end they are tired, but they have not gone anywhere. Your point on the potentially disastrous effects of taking the job that's "a fit for right now" is definitely on target.
