So I work in a facility, and I really have liked my job a lot. I’ve liked my bosses and my coworkers, but I have decided I’m moving to California. And I have applied and interviewed at several places, and then interviews went well, and so the new places are checking my references.
This is normal, especially in my field. They need to do a thorough background check and everything before they can give you an offer. And so obviously, I had to tell my bosses that I’m planning on leaving, and I asked for references, which they happily provided.
But now… both bosses and coworkers INCESSANTLY ask for a date that I’m leaving. And I keep saying maybe, MAYBE early or mid March, but I can’t pick a date until I have a new job.
And so, while everyone seems pretty nice about it and they say they will miss me, they do NOT seem to understand that I can’t leave until I have a job.
And I guess they didn’t like that answer, so it’s like they made one up for themselves.
My work just sent an email out to EVERYONE that I am leaving in early March. So now it feels like they are pushing me out… all this just because I had to ask them for references. This just feels so unfair. It’s like they are taking the choice away from me.
I guess I might send out another email saying that I actually do not have a moving day in March yet, but god this is so frustrating.
