Gave my notice at work, boss won’t even speak to me now

Never give notice. Now you know why.

Always give notice, don't work for crappy companies.

Check your paid vacation/sick leave rules. You may be able to take unused paid vacation or sick days your last few weeks.

Otherwise, be the better man and make a graceful exit. It is a very small world. We may be coming up on a recession and you never know what may happen.

Hang in there and be professional.

I gave 3 weeks notice at my last job expecting to be sent home that day as the company often did with others in similar positions. My boss kept me around and was generally a butt-sore prick. He also bad mouthed me after I left but I always did what was right and worked those 3 weeks to help transition my work to others. They ultimately had to hire 2 people to cover what I had been doing.

Be the boy scout.

Turn up on time and work out your notice in a professional manner.

This will not be the last place you leave in your life.

Any funny business and you tempt a poor reference or a claim you didn't work out your notice. Who cares if he doesn't talk with you. You're leaving

Why three weeks? Two weeks would have been perfectly fine. Though now that you've done it you should work those three weeks, it'll go fast.

A lot of managers get butthurt when people leave. They feel betrayed, especially if they hired you or spent significant time or money training you. Some also hate it for selfish reasons, now they have to find and hire someone new, train them, and hope they work out. Can also cause them to confront the fact that maybe they don’t have the nads themselves to leave for greener pastures, especially if they’re in a dead end job or at a dead end company.

As others have said, remain professional...and if your HR dept does exit interviews, I would tell them you were disappointed to be treated so unprofessionally after giving the company 50% more notice than usual.

Sheeeeeeee-it

I'd kick it back to him and put it in his lap.

Tell him you can feel the tension. Tell him that if his attitude doesn't improve, you re done. That's the adult thing to do. Leaving isn't any reason for him to be butthurt.

why wouldn't you leave now?

I just got word of the new job last Friday and I wanted to finish this month out and start the new position after the new year. I’m also debating not going to the Christmas party for my current job

Are you sure you aren't screwing yourself over on benefits by waiting until after the new year to start your new job? Always start a new job before the beginning of a month and especially before the beginning of a year.

Benefits don't kick in until after 90 days on the job. Plus if I work these last three weeks I will get all of my PTO paid out which would be a decent sum. I guess I'll spend the last three weeks surfing LR

I recently quit my job as well. My boss told a bunch of people that he would convince me to stay but didn’t work...now office is coping attitude with me.

Smoke crack in the company bathroom and slang it to any coworkers that ask you about it.

Repeat with heroin

This is a horrible idea unless your background check has been 100% completed. Anything criminal or that might be reported from one employer to another should be off limits.

It’s has nothing to do with me being rebellious. It’s more along the lines of me not wanting to spend a Friday evening with my coworkers. I get enough of them during the week. I’d rather be out with my wife and friends

You get a 1 day notice if you get let go, what's with the 3 week stuff you guys are talking about.
