In Cali if she says anything else she is liable. drifting Posted at 5:42 pm on Aug. 20, 2008 Quote: from breakapart at 7:29 pm on Aug. 20, 2008 Quote: from drifting at 4:01 pm on Aug. 20, 2008 Yes, actually, she is.    And she probably should.

BrokenBelief Posted at 1:05 pm on Aug. 20, 2008 I have to say, she should.  Two weeks notice is there for a reason.  Just as it takes you time to find a new job, she needs a chance to find someone to replace you, and attending scheduled hours is an agreement between the business and its employees.  You were completely wrong to skip out on them.

Agreed.  It royal fucks people over. theboxman Posted at 1:02 pm on Aug. 20, 2008 She can do whatever she wants of course if it is not true you can sue the shit out of her.  But if she calls to tell them that you walked off the job to start over at the new place she is just going to come off as a stupid fat cow. danny240591 Posted at 1:01 pm on Aug. 20, 2008 if she was harsh nd said it as a random person goin to your manager yeah why not but she couldnt say it from a managers perspective Most recent 15 of 22 previous replies displayed.
