Giving notice on a Monday?

[Anonymous]

Boss was out Friday. About to screw his whole world up when he realizes I’m out.

Wish him luck, he needs it more than me

It might not matter as much to him as you think.

Be ready to get shown the door ASAP. You should have your office already packed up, files & contact info already at home, etc.

He may get nasty, if you are a critical loss.

Friday, Monday, what’s the difference?

I think I gave notice on a Tuesday, as soon as I signed my offer letter. Don’t think it matters.

Why would you do that? I always wait to give notice.

Should've left a Post-it note on his desk a la Seinfeld style

Without knowing the personalities involved, I would say this is unlikely, if OP is a critical loss. Instead, the boss will want to make sure that everything is transitioned over appropriately.

I gave notice on Monday morning, my last day was the following Friday. I needed a signed offer letter in hand before giving notice and I didn't get it until 8am Monday,

Two Fridays later - I gave two weeks notice.

I did it on a Tuesday - as soon as I got my offer letter. I wanted to give no more than two weeks notice.

Signed offer letter is a worthless piece of paper.

My new job I started April 17. Pre April 17 offer can be pulled. Not on benefits new job till May 1.

If offer pulled I am out of luck and I rather wait till May 1 for last day old job so I am on medical new job

It sounds like you work for/are hired by shit companies. Literally every job I've had since my first one has been a job I've been recruited into by a former colleague, so the idea of a job offer being pulled out from under me with less than two weeks notice is highly unlikely when a company has put this much work into recruiting me, LOL.
