Random weird career advise for US people: when you change jobs, it may be tempting to make your last day fall in the last day of the month. It looks like a good and clean way to provide "closure". Don't! Instead set your last day for the first day/week of the following month.
Most companies pay for insurance at the beginning of the month, and you keep it until the last day of the month even if you left the company. Leaving the last day of the month, you'd be uninsured until the next job starts.
