Having to listen to it once again, I can kinda tell why :wink:

Not one of my favorites. :uhoh:

I know its not a well loved song, but i kind of like it
 
Alright.... Can I have some forum advice?


I'm quitting my job, but I dont know how.

I hate the one I am at now, and I found a new one. Hired and everything... I just need to figure out how to quit. Any advice?

I dont really have room for a 2 week notice, more like a weekend (thats what it is, and I cant stand to work there anymore)

So.. Anything helps :)

just write your boss/supervisor a letter informing them of your plans to leave the company, and tell them your final date of work. that's how i always did it. not because i'm a coward, but because i was afraid i'd tell them something that'd get me fired if i spoke to them in person :giggle:

I... er... Dance with a sign on the corner of the street. I've been there for SIX months now, and its gotten old. I have made a rep for myself though, local celebrity. I cringe when I have to go out there... I hate life when I have to go out there. 5 hours, one break after 3. Its torture.

Zoo TV Dublin and Popmart are the only things I dance to, something about the energy gives me it :wink:

I like Khan's advice.

With my last job I left very quickly too. I got my current job late on a Friday evening, and they wanted me to start on Monday. I basically called my boss and left her a message saying I was quitting. I had a feeling I was going to get the job, so I had slowly been taking my stuff home with me. My old boss didn't even call me back after I got the new job, which was probably a good thing. I was glad to leave.

So it's not something that you're going to keep on your resume? :lol:

I think you can just tell them you've found something else and give them a letter like Khan said. It's not like it's a "career" type job or you have a lot of responsibilities. They should expect high turnover with that type of job. Just say "I'm sorry for the short notice, but".
 
Nice one, Axver!

One thought I've had recently along those lines is as WTSHNN finishes up, bono starts singing ASOH. Not sure if it would work as a set closer, though. Hmm... I will ponder this more as I walk...

Just give your notice. The practice in my company is that when you give two weeks notice you are asked to leave THAT day, but they still pay you for the two weeks. Sweet! But you have the new job already so it’s not like you’re depending on your old job for a reference. It’s callous but just don’t show up, they legally have to pay you for what time you’ve put so forget them. Besides jobs are overrated. :happy:

Well, surprisingly, as soon as I mentioned that I was the sign guy, they REALLY wanted me to work for them (I even had one guy send ane mploy out while I was working because he wanted me to work for him, because of my energy and enthusiasm.) So I may keep it on the resume :wink:


But the weird part is, my Aunt is my boss. Not close, I never really talked to her or consciously met her (I was a baby) until this job.

:up:

i look at it this way, when a place lets you go, do they give you notice? nope, you usually get some bs conversation with your manager or someone in hr and an even more bs-filled letter in the mail. why should you do something for them that they wouldn't do for you?

if you list them as a reference and someone calls them in the future, they're just allowed to ask a few basic questions. "when they quit, how much notice did they give?" isn't one of them. :wink:

Like A Song was done once. Promenade never. :sad:

I'd love to hear them, they're such excellent songs.

Everyone classes actung baby as a massive experimental time for u2 but the step up in class from war to the unforgettable fire was huge i dont think bono has ever been as expressive or imaginative in his lyrics since the unforgettable fire, promenade, homeoming, bad and my favourite u2 song the unforgettable fire..think that album made them

Quit immediately. The 2 week notice is only if you need a good reference.

it's hard to tell, but the zootopians believe that Secret Machines are on stage now based on commentaries. Any Spanish speakers here care to help translate?
