Bonus points if someone warned you and you went ahead anyway.

    Right‽

    2 jobs ago, I left with essentially 3 days warning because I was fucking miserable (this gave me a week off between jobs).

    The last job I left, I negotiated a 3 week gap, so I’d be able to give a two-week notice AND take a week off because I genuinely liked the job and the people I was working with, but I fell into an opportunity too good to pass up.

    A super important life lesson is to always put yourself and your mental health before the company.

    I got some life advice somewhere, I don’t remember where, that was essentially: Don’t craft a well-thought-out argument against somebody that John Brown would have shot AND never give two weeks notice to a company that makes you miserable and it has been life changing.

      That is amazing advice, and I will try and fail to put the first to good use here on lemmy with these fucking trolls.
