It depends on the relationship with your supervisor/company. If you are cool with your boss or respect the company, tell him/her first in person and they will let you know what you need to do afterwards. There are some managers who know the deal that this is only a business and you have to do what is best for you first. Plus, you can use them as a reference in the future or if shyt doesn't work out, you can see if you can come back to your old job. I know plenty of people who left their old jobs and had to come back because things didn't work out with the new gig.

Now if you hate your boss or have no desire to come back, still tell the manager first just to be professional and then send an official email to them. Some companies may just let you go that day and still give you two weeks pay. It all depends on corporate policy. Don't be an ass on the last two weeks because you may never know who you will run into in the future. Hope that this helps.

yeah I have no issue with my manager or my supervisor. They've stretched out their neck for me before years and years ago when I had medical issues and was always having appointments always accommodated. It's just I found a better job closer to home in a more stable environment.

thanks

and thanks to everyone else :salute:

Be a pro about it. Do it face to face with your immediate supervisor. Don't burn any bridges. They will appreciate you giving them notice and doing it the right the way. You never know when your path is going to cross someone's again, especially if you work in the same industry. Congrats on the new gig, breh :salute:

How common do employers sabotage an employee after they've put in resignation?

Unless you're using a past boss as an reference. Then it's illegal by federal labor laws. A past employer can confirm your date of employment with another company.

Its not common at all, most employers go through 3rd party verification systems that just prove you worked at the places on your resume and never talk to your old employers.

The GOAT way to resign :troll::

But nah, just make sure you recite what you want to say so that you can keep them as a reference. It's all business, so it should be no hard feelings anyway, unless it's a competitor or something.

You guys have never left a job before on good terms? Jesus, you write your note give it to your boss, and then bounce. If you have vacation time, submit that first, then hand in your two weeks notice.

depends on the relationship with your manager. if you had a good relationship do it face to face.

i just asked if she had time, closed the door and said i had to resign. We then discussed where I was going, how I could help them replace me and she was very happy for me.

Exactly. My manager was good to me helped me get a raise as a contract worker and everything so there there was no way I was gonna surprise her with an unsuspecting email one morning saying I'm leaving.

I'll be doing my MBA in 3 or 4 years too. I know she'd be a good person to get a letter of recommendation from.
