They do that where I work too. You go to discuss your other offer and they escort you out, you don’t even get back to your desk. THey send and HR splotch to come get your personal belongings. Forewarned is forearmed at least in my case.

On the bright side, you’ve got a more time off than you expected and a new better gig when it’s time to go back. Congrats!

see… i got a job offer and was only given 8 days to accept and start… i told them to piss off… if the new job can’t give you 14 days then they don’t want you bad enough.

it’s not a good idea to burn a bridge this early in your life… hopefully shit won’t come back to haunt you!

i still like my job… so go me!

I agree and had the same situation with my old job. I was giving him a full two weeks and my old asshole of a boss was like WTF you said you applied for part time. I was liek I did and they had a full time opening. He got pissed I said I tell you want pay me double what you do now and I will stay, he gave me a dirty look. I told him to fuck off and if he couldn;t understand I was bettering my life then he didn;t need a two week notice and just stopped going to work. Called up my curent employer and satred 8 days early.

Wow dude, that’s a helluva tough bridge you’re refering to in your story if that didn’t burn it. Heheh. Gotta love those oppurtunities for conflict where you come out on top…

it has nothing to do with burning the bridge… i was not happy at that place and i could have given him a 3 month notice and i think it would have wnet down the same way… the only reason i gave him a 12 day notice and not a 14 is because then i would have had 2 w-2 for 3 days of work… besides if you are going to be petty about 2 days then i dont want to work for you anyway
