'Ended up putting in a two week notice... they acted surprised': Worker gives workplace 6 months notice, company avoids finding a replacement

'Ended up putting in a two week notice... they acted surprised': Worker gives workplace 6 months notice, company avoids finding a replacement

This person gave their company half a year to replace them , and that still wasn't enough time. That's a generous offer! Most people give the usual two weeks' notice when switching jobs. It's the common courtesy to let your employer know that you're heading for the door, while also giving them time to strategize and start the hiring process for your replacement. U/Knowslittle wrote that their employer was making them do the jobs of three people . This worker was stretched so thin that it was be…

Manager refuses to let new hire leave early to pick up his kid, he quits the job without notice: ‘I made it clear this was a deal breaker’

One piece of advice anyone should follow when starting a new job is – get absolutely everything in writing.

If you want to make sure you are actually going to get everything that is talked about, you have to get it all in writing. The employee in this Reddit story should have followed this piece of advice.

'I put in my 2 weeks. And this is where it got fun': General manager reprimands employee over 'neutral' workplace review

This general manager has his crews filling out customer satisfaction surveys. Yes, you read that right. This fast-food GM decided to rig his customer satisfaction ratings by getting his employees to write them! It's one of the hallmarks of super-sketchy businesses. Companies that have satisfied customers don't have to beg their employees to help them get a 5-star rating on the internet. As you might imagine, that wasn't even the only unethical behavior going on at this company. The employee who…

Update: 'My boss has not acknowledged my two-week notice': Boss won't talk to night shift worker about quitting up until their last day

Update: 'My boss has not acknowledged my two-week notice': Toxic boss avoids talking to night shift worker about quitting up until their last day

This boss is competing in the petty Olympics with the way she treated her employee during their final weeks at the job. One of the easiest ways to pinpoint if somewhere is a good place to work or not is to look at the employee turnover rates. That's easier said than done before you get a job. But when you start asking around and everyone seems to have started less than six months ago, the warning sirens in your head might start to go off. This person shares that at their previous place of emplo…

reddit reddit-thread malicious-compliance emt pto said-sick-leave sick-days leave underpaid paycheck payday employee holidays resignation quitting two-weeks notice sick

'I'm suddenly feeling feverish': EMT gives his 2-week notice then learns he will be shorted PTO, uses all of his sick days in his final two weeks

According to the Feds, employees are only allowed to get sick 3 days out of the year. At least, PTO and sick leave is intentionally convoluted and in America, some people actually feel guilty taking sick days (even when they ARE sick) because they have that vacation to Bermuda later in the year that they're saving those days for. But doesn't that defeat the purpose of a sick day? We should just call it what it really is: Floater days where you're paid to not work.

'They thought I was useless [but] within a week, they were frantically trying to get me to help them': Overworked employee quits his job after being disregarded for months; company scrambles, then retaliates with a baseless lawsuit

Unrequited love is the second-most devastating feeling in human existence. The absolute worst feeling in a person's life is unrequited hard work. Diligent employees with a strong work ethic often get the short end of the stick in their workplace, with countless late nights and at-home data analysis going unnoticed. In this case, OP had picked up the slack in his job, working extra hours and assuming tasks that would help fatten his bosses wallets, but that grind ultimately took a toll...

hubris manager pay managers salary employee employees work deny desperate begging boss working office training trainee replacement notice resignation payday

'They had their chance': Post-resignation, boss begs his employee to stay longer to train his replacement, gets denied

Managerial hubris is one of the reasons employees hate their jobs. Not only are we lacking in pay, but we are enslaved to the most incompetent group of overinflated bimbos who could easily be replaced by AI– at leas the replacement would be more charismatic. But these types of managers will deny your raise and then come begging for your help. Which is it? Do you value my hard work or not?

AITA: 'He found out when he was served an eviction notice': Immature brother expects family freebies after avoiding paying rent to his brother for months, older sibling sells the house in retaliation, family drama ensues

There's a reason that people wear stupid masks to cover their identity when they accept lottery winnings on public broadcast. It's simple– they don't want their family knowing that they're overnight billionaires. For some reason, people think that they're entitled to a portion of any family member's financial success just because you're related.
