Just find a new job and tell them you'll need a couple of weeks before you can start.

Is that really something that's acceptable to do though? (I'm actually asking.) I always assumed it was generally frowned upon, and that most of the time when a company is hiring that means they actually need help then.

Yup. Happens all the time. Employers know that it's worth delaying it a bit in order to get the employee the want.

One thing that's very common where I work is we hire a new person, and then two weeks later they're gone for a week or two for holidays they already had booked. It's fine, you just need to be upfront about it.
