I’m leaving a shitty retail job and only gave one week notice. I’m feeling guilty, I had to text my boss my resignation because she isn’t coming in until the middle of the week and she never gave me her email address. So I didn’t really have another choice.
I sent a message and thanked her for the experience and that I’m very grateful, but this was just an opportunity I couldn’t pass up.
My boss was incredibly bitter about this.
They were training me to be an assistant manager so I get that this is out of left field, but I’m 20, this job pays minimum wage and is just awful. People do meth in the bathroom and fitting room and management does virtually nothing about it, even when the smell is giving employees headaches. This place is also very mismanaged.
I couldn’t turn up a job that is one I will actually enjoy (as much as you can “enjoy” a job), Will pay me a ton more money, and will pay for me to go to college.
My boss and I have had a relatively positive relationship and I tried being as nice as possible. But she seems upset and bitter. I have anxiety and the idea of my last week being in a hostile atmosphere puts a pit in my stomach.
I’m just starting to feel guilty that I didn’t give two weeks. Idk.
