Hey everyone! 👋 So, I’ve been with this local family-run construction company for a few years now, and let me tell you, things have taken a turn since I put in my two weeks notice. 🚧💼
Here’s the scoop:
– I’ve been the boss’s right hand for a while now, but the pay and management have been less than ideal.
– I got a great job offer with better pay, benefits, a company vehicle, and weekends off, so I had to take it.
– When I told the boss, there was no appreciation or good luck wishes. 🤷♂️
– Instead of letting me finish my final two weeks strong, they’ve had me doing menial tasks, cut my hours, and are avoiding me like the plague. 🧹🕰
Question for you all: Are they being immature, or is there something else going on that I’m not seeing? 🧐
Possible Solutions:
– Talk to HR or a higher-up about the situation.
– Keep your head high and finish your last two weeks professionally.
– Focus on your new opportunity and the exciting future ahead.
What do you think? Have you ever experienced something similar at work? Let’s discuss! 💬 #WorkplaceDrama #Jobs #Professionalism
There’s business owners who want to feel fulfilled leading and there are way freaking more on an ego/ narcissism trip who get off controlling you. You might have asked for a raise before leaving but they could’ve tried to keep you too. Even if they were awesome I believe you should get on and focus on a route to financial independence. Good luck!
Sure, they’re taking it personally. It’s not right, but I can understand it from their view.
This is just dumb & extremely shortsighted! It’s a stupid power and jilted sulk play that’s literally costing them! Just take it as another sign from the universe that you are making the right decision! You wouldn’t have been able to grow there. At most you would have been an exalted babysitter for their fragile egos.
Yes, they are being immature, and the only reason you didn’t see it before, if that they were getting a sweet deal out of your labor.
**Lesson 1**: Yeah, there are people like that on the planet — seemingly more today than in the past.
**Lesson 2**: Keep a close eye on your career interests, because most other people will be looking out for their own interests — often at your expense, unfortunately.
**Lesson 3**: Don’t become that guy. Remember how it felt to not only be taken advantage of, but to be essentially punished for getting yourself in a better position. Never be that guy. Remember how you felt in this experience, and figure out how to take care of your own interests, but without taking advantage of others — especially those working for you.
Congrats on your new role. This current place will be in your rear view mirror soon enough.
wtf why are you even posting why do you care just leave you already have anther job they treat you like sh*t during your 2 wk notice leave after the 1st day issue solved
its a right to work you can leave time with out cause and they can fire you anytime without cause just like they can treat you like sh*t with out cause you can say byebye today without cause
Id quit. You’ve already secured another job. You don’t have to endure this type of treatment. Also, they’re using you as an example to the other employees. Sounds like its an all or nothing type of company even-though they’re not paying you fairly.
Sorry friend, this is nothing new and I’ve also seen people walked out the same day they gave their two weeks.
Just leave now. Two weeks is absolutely not required.
