On the down-low

By IrialNiall - 08/02/2021 07:42

Today, I tried to quit my job of almost 6 years so I can date the man of my dreams, one of my bosses. When I gave my 3 weeks notice so they can try to replace me, they refused to accept it. My potential boyfriend won't see me anymore until I quit and can't tell my other managers why I need to quit. FML

IrialNiall tells us more.

I have another job lined up, no problem, and am already hired in. It made more sense for me to be the one to leave since I'm hourly and he's salary. I love my job, but I hate it at the same time, so it's a bit of both. He never asked me to leave though, I offered to be the one to go somewhere else. He's never struck me as controlling or anything like that before, and still doesn't now. But neither of us wants to be fired. I don't think you're cynical at all, by the way, and actually appreciate you're honesty and POV

They can't keep you there against your will. You gave your resignation. Don't show up anymore after your noted final day. The end. Good luck.

They don’t get to tell you you’re not allowed to quit. That’s not how it works. You gave them a date and told them it would be your last day. So just stop going after that day.

call a lawyer, if they refuse your resignation, sue them.

Are you kidding me? You're planning on quitting your job you've been at for 6 years for your a guy who has a higher level and better paying job than you? Don't be silly It will be harder for you as a woman He's the man he should find another job and recommend you for a promotion ✊🏻
