My old boss got fired for getting involved with one of our interns. Threw away his job and marriage all in one.

Oh so much is bad with this one. Hope that intern also made out ok.

At agency A: the AAE “servicing” the chief operating officer in the garage behind the office

At agency B: the admin assistant who ran a side business from her cube for 7 years without anyone noticing. It was (and I’m trying to be discreet) a “call girl service.”

At agency C: the dude who overloaded a corporate server by running 3 laptops 24/7 to download songs off Napster

Teenage me doesn't see the problem with the dude at Agency C.

Someone got caught stealing and had to be escorted out by the police. It was six months ago and people still talk about it like it was a major event.

oh my gosh stealing what? I'm assuming not like... office pencils and notebooks if the police even got involved.

Advice needed on handing in notice, I recently signed an offer letter and understand the screening process takes 4-6 weeks. I have a month's notice period and have agreed a preliminary start date in Feb.

I was planning on not handing my notice in until the checks had been completed so its all secured (not that I think I will fail any checks), but apparently I need a reference from my current employer not previous ones. Can't really do this without handing in notice can I?
