Rule number 1: Don't trust employers, period. Remember, there is a power imbalance working for employers. They will always leverage your desire to eat and house yourself to get you to do anything they want.
Saving anyone the time. Its 2024 you don't owe your employers a damn thing. They'd fire you and replace you in a matter of days. Just quit and move on. No need for 2 week notice or anything
Let's see you say this after you get laid off or fired and you are now a job hopper and no past employer will give you a reference since you did not give a 2 week notice. These things matter and ruined me in 2009 when I needed to find work. The gap mixed with a job hopper meant no interviews for 3 years! I had to go to fast food. Lesson learned. Reputation is everything in business
I agree with @marcosvalos2502 If the reason for quitting is the employer, then they deserve the same, no two weeks. If the employer was great, but it is not working out, then yes, try to help them out. But, I will never go back to a previous employer, that's what I call true failure.
I'm currently working 60 hours a week. 40 for my full-time on-site job that I've had for over 10 months, and my new part-time remote job. Hopefully the remote job will become full-time in November 🤞 I did a software engineering bootcamp and got the part-time offer a few days later to be a Technical support engineer. No it's not software engineering but it is getting my foot in the door. My full-time 40/hr week job is getting worse by the day, and I'm so eager to quit, but I'm waiting on this new remote job to become full-time. I'm 20/yr old and I've been married almost 5 months.
Congrats. I am in my 40s and did desktop stuff for nearly a decade. I am not a coder but do infrastructure stuff. The problem is peoiple today won't take these jobs and prefer to get gaps on their resume because it doesn't pay 140k a year fresh out of bootcamp with no experience. You alex are on your way there. It will take a few years but do not stop learning and get your certifications done and within 5 years you will be doing things outside of desktop support and making more $$$. That 140k will come closer to 8 to 10 years of experience.
Ken, give us some context. How much did you work and what portion of your families income did you contribute as a teenager? I think it would really help drive this point home to add some personal experience. Thanks.
Very interesting concept that employees are expected to handle jobs with Grace even on the edit even when we see employees canning people left and right with no regard to people …. Was this a paid or for promotion?
Yeah, go ahead and follow the advice in this video. Here’s how the real world works - you find a new job. The new employer needs several weeks to get you onboarded, get background checks completed, etc. You’ve timed things perfectly to avoid a gap in income, so you go to your soon-to-be former employer and give a 2 week notice. They have you gather your things immediately and escort you out the door while saying thanks but no thanks to your two week notice. Don’t follow 1980’s advice in a 2020’s world.
What are you talking about? lol this really works (maybe at the global/corporate level you work at you’re more inclined to bail) but this is a good guide to leave and leave WELL
I like how you break things down very practical and insightful. I think many people are too emotionally immature and should learn/grow from every situation. I think one should leave when it really is messing with your mental health and well-being that's when to make an exit plan.
I will not watch this video until he addresses how companies unprofessionally get rid of people.
Right!
NEVER give 2 weeks notice or exit interview
Just curious, how come?
Because you should never trust someone with leverage over you or unbalanced power dynamics @@Ketchup584
@@Ketchup584 1. Might get escorted OUT of the building immediately 2. NO benefit ONLY liability what U say
@@OptimalOpinionso what?
You’re leaving. You have a new job. They legally can’t say anything to a future employer about you.
@@mtucker3401 GUD luck with that
Quitting is the only way to get a real pay raise anymore.

Here’s how Ken left his last job: “hey boss I’m going to lunch, see you later”

Exactly… Ken is a company man for sure… what else is he going to say… Hey Dave when I quit I’m just going to peace out ✌🏻

It has never affected my job opportunities. Always tell unverifiable lies to employers @@timgibney5590
People don’t find value in the references. Walking off a job is necessary sometimes sure. The references can make or break a job sometimes.

@@timgibney5590 I truly appreciate the encouragement. I look forward to my journey ahead.
When I quit I am going to make a scene that will be visible from space.
