I've only worked 4 hours with them in the past 3 weeks. THAT is why I am quitting, and that I have a new job starting next week (:. What do I say?

Replies I heart nubs Posted at 8:37 pm on Oct. 16, 2008 Quote: from medjai at 8:17 pm on Oct. 15, 2008 Retarded. Quit correctly by utilizing two week notice and claim that you're leaving the company because you have to take care of your grandmother who is ill and so you will not be able to commit to any schedule of any kind. Whenever possible, leave a company gracefully. If you're not going to be graceful, walk in wearing work attire and go to your manager and say, "I'm not clocking in today." "Why not?" "Actually I'm not ever clocking in again." Leave. LOl. Exactly this. choii Posted at 8:21 pm on Oct. 15, 2008 Thanks for the advice everyone (: .

But unfortunately due to certain circumstances you will no longer be able to work for them I've only been working for them for 3 weeks. I don't think they even know me. Only 3 weeks? Then fuck 'em. You wont get any sort of reference from them since it's been such a short period of time. Call in and tell them that you wont be coming back. Simple as that. goxpens Posted at 8:20 pm on Oct. 15, 2008 What job is this? medjai Posted at 8:19 pm on Oct. 15, 2008 Exactly you should keep the reference in good standing, don't quit, resign and put in your two weeks notice with the excuse I gave you. choii Posted at 8:18 pm on Oct. 15, 2008 Quote: from medjai at 8:17 pm on Oct. 15, 2008 Retarded.

Love Today Posted at 8:14 pm on Oct. 15, 2008 2 weeks notice. I heart nubs Posted at 8:14 pm on Oct. 15, 2008 Two weeks notice. Put in a letter and tell them face to face.

There is nothing wrong doing it over the phone as long as you never have to reapply there for a job. The last job I went in person to quit for made me feel bad and I ended up staying until my next job started. Wow.
