To all the people googling “quitting a job without notice” – please stop. Please.
No one needs instructions on how to quit their job. If you need guidance for that, I’m wondering how you managed to become gainfully employed in the first place.
If you want to give 2 weeks notice. Do it. If not. Don’t do it. It really doesn’t matter because in the end, the job will still be there (theoretically) even if you are not.
If you are trying to figure out if you qualify for benefits or if you can still get health insurance: you’ll find this out soon enough when you quit or get fired.
If you want to know ahead of time – ask HR. That’s what they’re there for: to let you know how much or how little a company will give you for anything.
Enough said.
This blog or this post will not provide any guidance on what happens to you after the job. Personal branding and career sites cannot be a panacea for deciding what the hell to do with your career life. Me? I just tell you what I think about workplace bullies, living a creative life and how being unemployed sucks.
But, you don’t have to listen to what the hell I say either. I never said you should.
Life happens before, during and after work. If you are consuming your thoughts with how you’ll live without a job, I think you’ve lost a bit of perspective. And, if you need instruction for things you already know how to do – you’re just avoiding reality.
I am saying this as respectfully as possible.
