I don’t want to be a shitty person

Hey y’all, a lil about me before I get too in detail. Before my current job, I was an assistant manager at a subway for a few years so I understand short staffing and the frustration of people just not showing up or quitting without notice. Anyways, I’m a server at a restaurant and I’m moving here soon and my new place will be 40 mins away from my job and my boss is a complicated man who doesn’t appreciate anyone and loves to reprimand employees in front of customers. Nothing is ever good enough for him. Today, I tried putting in my two week notice, you know, the respectful thing to do and explained that I’m moving. Apparently that wasn’t a good enough notice because we’re short handed (we have the same number of servers as we did when I first started, literally no effort made to hire more)…

Anyways, I’m a server at a restaurant and I’m moving here soon and my new place will be 40 mins away from my job and my boss is a complicated man who doesn’t appreciate anyone and loves to reprimand employees in front of customers. Nothing is ever good enough for him. Today, I tried putting in my two week notice, you know, the respectful thing to do and explained that I’m moving. Apparently that wasn’t a good enough notice because we’re short handed (we have the same number of servers as we did when I first started, literally no effort made to hire more) and I even offered to work an extra week but nope, not good enough and my two week notice was basically denied (wtf?) and he didn’t take my distance situation into consideration. I literally feel cornered rn to stay somewhere where I don’t want to be and I’ve already been stressed out with my current home life, moving, school, and work and I’m on the verge of breaking. My boyfriend thinks I should just quit or not show up anymore which I really do not want to do but feel like that may be my only way out. I know how it feels to have people no call no show/quit without notice and it’s super frustrating and I don’t want to do that and I don’t want to fuck over my coworkers but feel like that’s all I can do. It’s even more of a problem because my boyfriend’s mom was with the company for 25 years and is friends with my boss and I know he will get her involved and I don’t want to deal with that either. I’m really stuck rn and do not know what to do. Reddit pls help lol

Lesson learned, NEVER work somewhere where family/relationships interfere
