talk about some gross negligence, how the fuck do you continue to do business when you know you're going under?

Fuck the economy tbh I want to know if the people are safe
I wouldn't worry about their safety. Bankrupt planes don't suddenly drop from the sky, and holiday extension isn't known to be particularily harmful. Except if you get fired from your job for it I guess.

Yeah, they say that it's safe now, but soon they''ll turn to tribalism, then they'll pick of the weakest, and before you know it a week's passed and they've eaten all the Irish. Oh the horror.

It's what happens when you leave them in the sun for too long. Vitamin D overload causes them to turn feral

That would explain why the worst behaved brits are those who have been or are on holiday in the sunshine recently.

I asked my boss what the required notice period is for resigning.

He posted up a job opening  on the town message board the same day.

Hey, it can take longer than whatever that period is to work through the replacement process, and if it comes to it that process is a lot easier to stop or put on hold than a hole in your workforce. Boss is just being proactive :V

... also you demonstrate one of the reasons a lot of people don't ask whatever their equivalent to HR is about things like that, heh. Even if there's just curiosity rather than intent it's a thing that can get a replacement lined up for you.

I understand the reasoning, and my boss knows I'll have to leave town eventually.

The wtf was more of a "that was quick" type.

Yeah, things can get done pretty fast on that front, these days. May they be as quick to offer good references in the future.

I don't know where/who you are but the standard I've known about is a two week's notice.  Usually with a accompanying letter.

I actually think its a good move on his part.

Its exactly that kind of boss I would want to work for, and, depending upon your job, he may serious believe you're considering packing up to be out by next week or something.

From another perspective, it does answer your question'; he is willing to at least make an effort of putting on a show for you.

Man, and I had just put my Armalite back in its hiding place. You're really not making things easy for me.

The joke's getting a tad old, isn't it? If I'm getting on your nerves, please do tell me.
