Ive noticed quite a few people in this forum talking about leaving their jobs without notice. Some of them even think its acceptable to do so.
However bad a job may be (and trust me ive experienced bad jobs myself), leaving without notice isnt the way to go. Surely it wouldnt hurt just to give them the proper notice and stick it out.
It doesnt just leave the company in the ****- it also leaves your colleagues in the ****, with them being short staffed until a replacement is found, especially during any shifts that you where meant to be doing. It doesnt make you look good.
You can also say goodbye to any possible reference when it comes to applying for another job. You may not want the reference, but if you do decide to put the job on your CV, there may be the odd questions asked by future employers.
If you are looking for another job, then surely it would be better to hang on in your current job until you find something better? As well as the money, it also looks better to future employers if you are already employed.
If you really hate your job that much, you either speak with them to solve any issues, stick it out until you find another job or if you really want to leave- give the proper notice.
What is everyone elses opinions?
