Ever just ghosted a new employer ?

(In the UK) Applied for a job in a nursing home (it’s a chain of nursing homes in the north). Heard good things but I’m now on my 9th shifts and I absolutely hate hate hate it. The senior is nasty and someone who works there used to bully my sister (to the point she got signed off) and is now trying to ‘pick on’ me.

I’m off with covid at the moment (isolating and currently on day 1) my return date is just before payday so with a sick day and isolation that should take me to payday. They said they’d deduct the cost of my DBS and uniform from my pay check if I leave in the first year but I’m wearing a second hand uniform and they didn’t pay for me to have a CRB. I see this as unfair. If I leave like this there’s no way they’ll have the change to deduct my wages.

So I’m debating just ghosting them after payday. Has anyone done this? Is a immediate notice better or?

So yeah, have you ever just not gone back to work?
