Steak-and-a-blowjob Tuesdays. The good news is that it's a steak. The Bad news is that it's Bob from the mailroom giving you a blow-job. Bitter, bitter meatloaf. I'm giving my 2 weeks notice today. Except that it's 2 days short of 2 weeks and it ends on a Thursday because I'd rather go see a band I like on friday night than go in to work. I don't burn bridges, but this one is going up in smoke. I got my offer on a Friday afternoon, dropped by to accept it on the Monday morning and gave my notice first thing when I arrived at work.
That way my last day was the second following friday. It would have been the same had I gave my notice the Friday afternoon. I was actually on good terms with my boss until I came in that Friday morning and found he threw out everything on my desk and disconnected all sorts of hardware from my pc.
The really funny thing is, he threw out all the documentation and notes I was going to pass on to my co-workers and wasn't about to dig them out of the garbage for him.
Much of it had only hard copies about one of our systems tht no one else was familliar with. You call that bad news? How do you think Bob feels? Explore careers Job hunting Working life. Working life Resigning.
