To feel like my daughter's threats are a call to action?

My 20 year old daughter finally started earning in January after I got her a job. She threatens to quit regularly. Sometimes it's more subtle, like she messaged me that she wanted a different job and then messaged "NO, I need a new job now" when I responded that I was sorry, it sounded like a tough situation. I feel like she's calling me to action and like she wants me to get her another job. Is that what you think, too, or is this all in my head?

Tell her she has a job and she can’t quit until she finds another job, tell her this is what adults do, and she is an adult even if mummy got her the job!
