Last year I had a job I actually kinda enjoyed. 10 hour days, 4 days of the week, and not once did they force Overtime. It was offered and I worked sometimes but never felt like I was being forced to come in, it was only for 6 hours so we were done by noon.
I left that job after a few months for a better opportunitywith great potential, but left on good terms even kept in contact with some of the employees and a few managers.
The past 2 months I found myself in an absolute shit hole of a job and applied back at the job I left last year. I got a call this morning from my old boss saying they decided not to move forward with my application for whatever reason. I ended the conversation with “I'm glad leaving on good terms meant so much”
Moral of the story is, never under any circumstance, give a notice before you quit. Even if you do everything right jobs will never be loyal to you. So why be loyal to a job?
