the two weeks grace period has never worked around here. people give their notice, and when the owner hears about it he says "gently caress you leave now. we don't need you" (almost verbatim). then their department gets to scramble to figure out what the gently caress to do

exactly. i don't know if its either protocol or the law here but then you still get paid for those two weeks.

god damn it, you've got to be kind

thinking back I probably should have left a bottle of booze stashed in the lav (it was a substance abuse treatment place) or something equally "funny" but I just wanted to leave ASAP.

as an intern, i wore a tie for the first few weeks. then my boss told me i looked like a builder (i dont/didnt get it) so i stopped wearing it. i usually have my shirt untucked now but i feel like im back in highschool when i do it

I once worked at a company that didn't have Casual Fridays, but they did let you wear jeans on Fridays on certain special days, maybe four times a year. They had to be in immaculate shape, and people would make a big deal about it, showing off what good taste they had in denim. Really a bit strange looking back.
