Putting in my 2 weeks tomorrow after starting the worst job I’ve ever had in September. Never thought I’d be the one to jump so quickly but here I am. A part of me wants to just not give the two weeks since I haven’t even been here that long and I’ll be burning bridges anyway but I guess I should just suck it up

I started a job in October and my last day is tomorrow… give the 2 weeks to avoid the extra bridge burning and work until your last day. It goes by quickly I promise!

I know. It’s tough here.

Maybe they’ll walk you out and you won’t have to do your two weeks!

I started a job over the summer, but the workload was insane and people were extremely toxic. So I put in my weeks this week. I have no job lined up but I am so burned out I’m excited to just rest.

What happened?

Why wouldn’t you burn a bridge with the people behind the worst job you ever had?

You're not obligated to do the two weeks if they'd been assholes.

I did my due diligence and gave my old place notice. They were quick to cut it and move up my last day when I wanted to claim some PTO for a holiday I planned way before I resigned.

What makes it so bad?

Found out today my toxic manager bad mouthed me to an HR rep in a different division. This correlated with his bad management and abusive behavior. Luckily the new manager I’ll soon be working with dismissed it. Her words of wisdom “reflect on what you could have done differently, you can only control your actions”. How does that resonate for you? Have you had similar experiences?
