have been unhappy with my job for quite sometime especially since loss of almost 75% of my team since last spring. Been applying since spring - accepted an offer on a role thats more lateral but 100% remote, same pay, less PTO (been current for 13 years)

need to reply re start date os 9/26 , but I wanted to ask for oct 3rd but I need off the 5 and 14, my anxiety about writing back and giving notice is making me sick. Advice on responding re start date/days and giving notice?

Congratulations on the new position!!! It's hard to get yourself out of a rut and you did it.

Re: start date.

Hello,

I'm excited to be joining COMPANY, and would like to request a start date of Oct. 3.

Please note: I do have prior plans that require me to be OOO Oct 5 and Oct 14. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Best,

Re: giving notice
Feel free to use a generic template online! If you have people you have a strong relationship who need to know before HR tells them, give them a heads up via chat or text.

Thanks this is very helpful I get so stuck with the anxiety that its sometimes hard to do these simple things

I did just email in personal mail my prior manager (who had enough and moved to a different role/department a few months ago) to let him know and he is happy for me.

Just not sure when/how to tell my new manager and current peers, guess I need to tell manager first then the peer then maybe a few days later let other people i am close to know...

I’d like to push back the start date to Oct 3rd but open to negotiate
