I joined this company as a full-time employee this February and am in the probationary period for the first six months. There is a three month notice period for the job, however, either me or the employer can end the employment at will with immediate effect during the probationary period, clearly stated in my appointment letter. I am resigning for multiple reasons, most importantly the fact that this is a toxic workplace. I sent my resignation email yesterday, and I got an email from the CEO stating that they cannot accept the resignation right now as I am in involved in various important activities. I sent the letter on Thursday evening and they want me to talk to the HR on Monday to sort my problems as they are busy with audits this week. I know that legally, they cannot reject my resignation but how do I take it forward…
Got a stomach flu today.
I work from home for a shitty call center. I woke up with an awful stomach flu and tried to work for an hour, I had to go to the restroom twice in that hour. I was told to be sure and deduct my restroom time from my breaks that day. I got so sick I clocked out and went to urgent care and got a doctor's note. Why do I put up with this shit for 10 dollars an hour? Praying I find another job soon.
Today, my supervisor told our Executive Director that I was resigning. I knew this had happened, but for the whole day, our ED avoided me. When we were finally face to face, he acted passive aggressively, as though he was insulted by my resignation. What's with bosses acting this way? As though someone quitting is happening to them? I understand taking news personally. At a certain point, that's only natural. But to see an employee's decision to put themselves, their career, or their family first as something they've done to you is ridiculous. Sir, grow up and try to match your maturity to the size of your paycheque.
