I think that really depends on your environment, your working relationship with your boss, and how you give your notice. I've quit some jobs immediately, while others I have given 3-4 week notice to allow my employer to find a suitable replacement.
Whichever way you choose to do it; you should be prepared for an immediate lack of employment. You should always be covering your own ass, and not relying on the charity of those who are employing you. No matter how nice they are or seem to be, you are not their financial priority or responsibility. -- Espi On Mon, Nov 27, 2017 at 8:18 AM, <john.matte...@gmail.com> wrote: > And ten minutes after you’ve given your notice, you’re marched out of the > building by two security goons, or the local constabulary with the comment > from management, “We’ll pack your things and ship them to you.” > > > > *From:* listsad...@lists.myitforum.com [mailto:listsadmin@lists. > myitforum.com] *On Behalf Of *Kennedy, Jim > *Sent:* Monday, November 27, 2017 8:56 AM > *To:* ntsysadm@lists.myitforum.com > *Subject:* RE: [NTSysADM] OS in the CPU > > > > It matters to management when you give your 2 week notice, which is > exactly what I would do if they treated me as you described.
