So, I’ve given several two week notices throughout my career. Unfortunately, I recently had to give one over the phone instead of in person. I only report to one guy and he was on vacation. I could have just given it to HR but that would have felt scummy. I called him and gave him my notice then sent him a letter of resignation. Feels bad man. Anyone else ever have to give a two week notice in an awkward/unfortunate way?
I’ve never felt awkward about quitting, but I have given notice depending on how fucked over the colleagues I cared about would be.
If I didn’t have any, I was out effective immediately.
If I did, I told my colleagues first and used a boiler plate to give the company a two week deadline to replace me.
