two week notice

management boss employee manager job work Office workplace two week notice quitting resignation employment employer - 25672965

Entitled boss won't accept employee's two-week notice, instead demands he stay at least six weeks: 'He kept saying this is so unprofessional and I am handling this so inconsiderately'

When you decide to leave a job, it's the norm to give a two-week notice to your employer. This provides management with a heads-up and helps them prepare for your departure.

'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
