i have an upcoming final interview this month. I just resigned from my previous job in a private company but i was there for only 2 mos because i decided to focus all my energy in preparing for the interview of this government institution. Is it necessary to state in my interview that i was in a private company for only 2mos? or should i keep it for myself?

I was completely upfront about why I accepted the offer, and my boss let me know that I would be welcome back if should want to. If I had been dissatisfied with my current job, I might have been a little bit less forthcoming about my reasons, but I believe you should always be honest, polite and professional.

This and the work schedule I received (I work everyday we are open, regularly scheduled) just make the job unattainable for me. Recently my coworkers and I received an email that we could not request time off during the month of march as my boss would be away and we’d need all hands on deck. (There are 6 of us total) Unfortunately my school commitments have me out of town during that time and I am handing in my two weeks notice this week. Thank you for the confidence and advice!

Two weeks notice is a courtesy, not an obligation. Companies don't always give employees two weeks notice before they fire them or lay them off. So don't feel morally obligated to extend them a courtesy they don't consistently extend themselves. Honestly, one week's notice is more than enough...especially if you've thought ahead and documented how to do particularly nuanced parts of the job and if you've organized your files etc within a shared folder. The company functioned just fine before you arrived. They'll function just fine after you leave. My rule is to give 1 week notice. Then use the second week to focus on yourself, re-charge, and get mentally prepared for the learning curve and cultural adjustment that will undoubtedly come with the new job. Fresh starts work best when one has a fresh mind, fresh attitude, and fresh outlook.
@andylacivita2 жыл бұрын
Mike. You first sentence is definitely true. There are no obligations unless your signed employment agreement specifies a particular notice period. Many do. You should do this not for the employer but for all the other EMPLOYEES at the organization. Not to mention, the world is small and you want to leave with impression you are a good employee. Those current employees will scatter and work at other companies you might want to get into.

We're so desperate they're now talking about bringing in a contractor to pick up the slack. I started an LLC, my own cleaning company, and told them to contract me to take care of the weekend shift, for which there is not one person to cover it. They refused, saying they only need mandatory overtime me to cover it whenever they wish. And if they bring in the contractor of their choice, my role in the department will change entirely and I will no longer be doing my job, but something else. Give me one good reason why I should give notice before quitting.

Do I resign while on vacation and offer 3, or wait to tell them until I'm back and only offer 2?

My last job, I gave two weeks and they were so gracious. Invited me out to a fancy lunch on my last date. The job afterwards, I ended up hating. 2 months in I gave my two weeks and they cut it short by a week. I had originally asked them I wanted to resign immediately but could stay for a week or two if needed. They asked me to rewrite the letter to say I wanted resign in two weeks. Made the right choice in leaving lol

One thing to add: When you are leaving, no matter how pissed at your company you are or how much your boss is a Dick: Always say Thank You. You don't have to blow smoke up their arse and tell them it was wonderful working with them if it wasn't, but ultimately - you both benefited from the arrangement - you got paid and got experience, they got the value of your labour. So say as you are leaving, show some gratitude.

I put in my two weeks yesterday with a company I have enjoyed working for over the past year. This morning my manager blows up my phone and e-mail wanting to talk about my decision, first thing they did was make it my problem by saying I shouldn’t have blind sided them and immediately wanted to know how they could make it better(though I don’t believe they can), especially after they denied my yearly 3% increase in April and am now requesting an extra 6/hour.

I’m resigning after receiving another position that meets my needs future wise. If I get a counter offer, I doubt I take it anyway. It’s about money, yes. I would get a higher salary, unlimited overtime, daily overtime, which pays after 8 hours everyday and $100 every Saturday I work, which I get in a bonus check at the end of the year. I don’t want to work on Sundays. At the new position, I don’t work ANY Sundays. That’s very important to me based on my spiritual beliefs. We work based on weather conditions. However, if the weather is bad, we can still work in the warehouse or something. I’m tired of working 2 weeks and don’t have anything left for me after paying bills. This position is weekly payouts. But we will see. I will keep you updated. Thanks!

A previous job of mine required 3 weeks notice in the Employee Handbook if you wanted to leave in good standing. Meaning you get your unused PTO pay out (legal to withhold in my state since it's in the handbook) or if you want to be eligible for re-hire in the future. It's probably an edge case, but there are times where 2 weeks isn't the right choice.

Thanks Andy! I would also advise them to read their employee handbook to know and understand what the company's policy is becuase some companies may require 3 weeks and if 3 weeks are not given, the employee could lose out on receiving some benefit, for example compensation for their remaining unused PTO/vacation days. I didn't hear you mention that in this video. Just sayin'.

I already don’t like my job but after this year they will no longer buy back unused vacation time. I have too many hours so I think I’m going to make my last day be dec 29 and sell back the vacation time. And get out. Plus they keep threatening me with performance even though I’ve told em it’s too much and that like so many others in this position quit or get fired. Last year 1/3 of the associates quit. I work for a large corporate investment firm. I’m not willing to risk all that vacay time getting lost bc I get fired for unreasonable expectations. Plus the extreme multitasking we do is really affecting me mentally. I’m close to all the employees. I am pretty sure almost all elate looking for a new job. I’ve saved up a couple years living expenses so I’m just gonna take a sabbatical.

Dafuq! I was discussing this with a friend yesterday Ô_o Update: I didn't liked the job (I'm a High School Teacher) because the Head Teacher (and owner of the school) was and old person and my way of working is using the maximum amount of technology, what had caused certain intrigues (and even lies by the boss) was making me nervous and I was not finding satisfaction with the place. Two months later, my friend recomended my name for another school, I did the interview and I'm going to work the same time and I'm going to receive 2.5x more. To talk with the old boss I simple started a conversation, broke the Ice and then "I've found another job...I'm leaving". It was one of the best times of my life, the burden that was over my shoulders left and I'm really excited with the new opportunity!

I normally do this for every job. However, I was working at one company as a training and development coordinator. I was there for a month before being swapped with the girl I was hired to replaced. She had been promoted to benefits and pay roll. She confronted me about it later. She trained me for the original position and was the person i was closest too at work. I had know two week prior about the switch and had been constantly asking had they told her. I was the scared new employee and felt like it wasnt my place. So, i told her everything. Only to be threatened after i told her. They said it was going to bit me in the butt. Unable to handle the stress of a new position and now fear, I left. I texted my boss and informed them I was not returning to work. I hated for a while that I burned that bridge. They dont rehire people. However, one of my previous co workers is now planning to sue the company. So, maybe it was a good thing I left and burned that bridge. Thoughts?

Employment implies there was a mutual _honest_ agreement, the employee can immediately tell you who precisely their employer is, a specific job description was presented, the option to accept/decline was present, coercion was absent, the managers/bosses are known and available, there is a complaint process and one can complain without fear of reprisal, the wage is at or above minimum for the region, the pay is weekly/bi-weekly, there is a paystub, whether paper or electronic showing hours worked, wages and deductions. In absence of these it isn't legitimate employment it's clearly a different situation, typically an illegal, immoral, unethical one.
