Ask to have a meeting with them and tell them you're moving on. If they don't have time for a meeting, just send an email. You don't owe them anything more than what you've posted here: "I need more stability with my schedule and have taken a new job that starts in two weeks. I'm happy to continue working here until then if you'd like."
Thanks, I believe I’ll do that like: Can we talk? Then I show this form( I have to have her fill out this housing form that she filled out at the start of my job there from my housing authority which, it’s a pain)
Conversation Starter
Just make it simple and tell them the truth that why are you quitting at first place.
My 2-week notice is simple and to the point. Here is my 2-week notice and the last date of my employment. You can say it is due to the unpredictable schedule, but that is completely up to you.
The simpler, the better. They don't seem to care about the schedule or they would try to get you more stability. You CAN thank them for the opportunity (but you don't have do), you should tell them that you are giving notice and when your last day will be. You CAN tell them why you are leaving, but again, you don't have to.
Thanks for your input
Have pride and say it
If you’re sure that you need to move on then the best way to give notice is always written. Email is best, but text can work too. Always address / notify your immediate supervisor and include higher ups if applicable. Keep it short and polite / professional. No sense in burning a bridge if you don’t have to. Do not give reasons why unless necessary and even then keep it minimal and professional, ie. do not get emotional, do not over explain, you don’t need to justify your decision to anyone but yourself. A good manager / leadership will ask for an exit interview for that type of feedback so that they can improve. If they don’t ask why- keep it moving!
Thanks. Never thought of that. Unfortunately for me I have something else I have to do, I just can’t leave a job and be done just like I just can’t start a job. I have to have my manager fill out termination of job form , the same form she filled out when I started for my housing authority which is pain in the butt
Why not simply display a one finger visual.
No, I like the people, just not how unpredictable the schedule is. It’s frustrating
Haha because in my industry you never know who’s connected. People know people and you maybe won’t get hired at your next job. Sure, you can be thinking whatever you want in your head, but it actually doesn’t cost you anything to take the high road and be professional about it
