I work for a very small company with only myself and one other employee. I received an offer for a new job at almost double my current salary, 6 weeks vacation (currently only get 1 week) and benefits.

They want me to give a longer notice but I can't because I'm starting the new job soon. Should I actually feel bad about this?
