I've been working at this job since September last year and the pay is awful simply due to me only being 18. There was another person working the same job as me who was older but they let him go because of there being “not enough work” but now they're putting his workload onto me and I'm still not even being paid the living wage whereas the person they let go did get paid the living wage due to him being 25. My contract says I have to give a month's notice but I really don't want to work where I don't feel appreciated. I have received and accepted a job offer that is more than 2x my current pay and I'd like to start that as soon as possible and I'd just like to know whether I can get away with no notice without legal repercussions or at the very least a shorter notice period.
Thanks for your time 🙂
