Am I tripping or is this weird?

I’m quitting my job (been there 1 year) b/c I’m relocating b/c my spouse got a job in a different country.

Honestly there’s a lot of tension in this job and I’ve felt unsupported in it, and i’m happy to be leaving it. However, out of respect I told them I’m open to giving more than two weeks (up to a month).

The VP meets with everyone yesterday and breaks the news, and afterwards no one says anything to me? Not a congratulations or when to discuss next steps

Not worth it. You’ll never chat with those toxic folks again. Now you get a fresh start and can pursue a work culture that fits you better

Yeah sounds weird. This is why I’m learning to have lower expectations from people😐

it feels like a weird power trip/control trip and honestly I’m about fed up with it (this isn’t the first time and communication/proactiveness is not this teams strong point) and I want to email in my resignation stating my last day and let that be that. i’m probably not but this whole thing is annoying and frustrating.

At least this response really confirms I’m making the right decision.

Wait a few days then say you ended up needing to change it to a 2 weeks notice but you're providing a recommended transition plan to support the process.

No further explanation, just a change of plans. Then move on. The lesson here is to stop bending over backwards for companies. But congrats you're almost free!

So recently my SO has been accusing me of being in control of when we are intimate (sex and cuddling). She says that every time she wants to I say no - and whenever I want to - she says yes. So it's by default doing whatever I want when I want. It's a gross exaggeration of what's happening - but does anyone ever deal with something like this? How do you say no to something like that - without your partner thinking you're just looking out for yourself or you're controlling?

I am a woman who has been working as a tech PE investor for 8 months now, and have been feeling extremely discouraged by my experiences in this sector so far.

Any advice on how to handle this?
