Not sure how much notice to give at my current store while job hunting. If I give two weeks and the new place delays my start date I’m stuck. Do you wait until you have a firm start date before quitting?

It’s usually safest to wait for a confirmed start date. Giving notice too early can leave you in limbo if the new job shifts. Two weeks is standard, but timing it with certainty helps avoid unnecessary stress.

Yeah I agree with you here! Don’t wanna risk it!

Wait until you have a date, for sure. If they delay your start date, there’s nothing you can do after you’ve already given notice. You could try and have your start date there coincide with when you leave your current job. However, I always value a few days free before I start a new position.

For definite gonna say that!

If you do it you could be 2 -4 weeks without pay they could go ahead and let you go so I personally wouldn’t do it until I know for certain I have another job so that I’m not four weeks without pay 

Yeah I don’t think so so probably not the best ideaB

I feel like my employer thinks I’m losing my shit.

I started traveling while working remote and fell in love with the mountains. I’m now applying to be a full time remote employee and fear they won’t approve it.

I feel like I have to defend that I’ve found more in life that makes me happy than just work.

How do I pitch that I need to live elsewhere for my happiness and not near an office?
