Stacy 0 #30 March 11, 2005 I had a similar situation in January. Had a job that I *could* have loved, but the upper management made it impossible. I worked16+ hour days sometimes, on call 24/7, it was obnoxious. I quietly found a new job and then tried to be civil about giving notice. I gave 3 weeks instead of two so they could have more time to replace me. I found that being considerate got me no where. I felt like I lost 5 months of my life working there. I ended up writing some nicely worded constructive letters to the corporate office in Seattle. NO changes may have taken place, but at least I know I wasn't silent about things.

AHoyThere 0 #31 March 11, 2005 I've haven't had the opportunity to use this. Been saving it. Walk into the bosses office and tell them... "I'm not strong enough for this job." After a pause, tell them that was your... "Too Weak" notice Get it? Two Week notice? Good luck. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weegegirl 2 #33 March 11, 2005 I actually don't have to give any notice. I could just walk. But I wouldn't do that to my team and the people I manage. They are too cool. My boss is a bitch, so I would do it to her, if it weren't for them. It's official. This job sucks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Snowwhite 0 #37 March 11, 2005 QuoteLiz, Write a short note to provide to your boss and human resources. Set up a meeting with your boss and present it to her. You can let her know verbally that you enjoyed the people and the project, but the continued hours are not acceptable. ------ To: Boss CC: Human Resources I regret to inform you that I have decided to pursue other career opportunities. My last date of employment with xyz company will be xx/xx/2005. Signed, LB I disagree. I wouldn't state anything other than, " I have been offered a job that I don't feel I can refuse at this point" If you really have a psycho boss, and she is asked for reference in the future, she may state that you don't handle job responsiblities well. Keep it as short and simple as possible. You may need her reference some day, and old bosses have a tendency to be in your life for the next 20 to 30 years..skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kai2k1 0 #40 March 11, 2005 QuoteI think yesterday was the last 15 hour day I had in me. As much as I love this job, they have projected 12 to 15 hour days through the end of September, with no time off. I do get paid hourly, but there is no overtime. Regardless, no amount of money is worth killing yourself over. I need to reclaim my life. Either you work for a trucking company or Boyd Coddington hotrods. Seriously, I hope it gets better for you.
