how to tell your boss you are resigning?

[Cerpin Taxt]

"Hey, Boss!"

"What?"

"PEEZOUT!!"

Make sure that you copy HR on your resignation letter. I too just accepted another offer and gave my resignation. CEO tried to keep me, but my mind was made up. I wouldn't accept a counter offer now that they will know you were looking.

"I've enjoyed my time here, but I got a great offer that will develop my career and I've accepted it. This is my two week notice." *hand him your written two-week notice*

Your written notice should basically just say the same thing, with your final date of work.

Run into managers desk, jump on desk.

Grab crotch, thrust pelvis like michael jackson and elvis on crack while screaming at the top of your lungs..."CAN YOU FEEL THE BURN MUTHAF'A!!!!"

it's done. updated the op with a very rough outline of the talk. not the most pleasant thing in the world, but overall, not bad.

"see-ya...BYE!"

I've only given 1 or 2 weeks notice twice in my 30-some years of working. Once, I got fired on the spot, tghe other time I was asked to train my replacement...which, for a crane operator, can be...awkward. Crane operators SHOULD know their job before they get dispatched...fortunately, the union hall sent a decent replacement, and all I had to do was show the new guy a few of the ropes about the particular jobsite, the barge, and some tips about working on the water. My last week was pretty simple.


OP, sounds like you did things right, and the meeting went well. Sometimes it's tough to quit a decent job, but often you have to as a career step.
Good luck to ya.

Could have been worse. The day I gave my two weeks was the day my "manager" stopped by our office (he works at a different site) to fire my co-worker. Put him in the position of having to keep the lazy ass... for now.

why dotn you get yourself fired and some severence pay?

my friend did his company a favor by giving them a generous 5 weeks notice. (he was a very valued employee). what happened? they ground him to train his replacement for 2 weeks, then cut the cord. he lost thousands of dollars of pay. and it effectively forced him out of the country due to visa/working rules. messed up his vacation/holiday plans. etc
