@Rodey - I’d suggest only giving notice once the hard copy offer from the new company is received (and give it a good reading over to ensure everything is as communicated verbally). A phone call/video call is sufficient if your manager/supervisor won’t be in office on the day you want to give your resignation (and while 2 weeks is customary, it’s up to you how long you want to assist with the transition - less or more…and always a chance they tell you not to worry about the 2 weeks and walk you out, though assuming you’re an employee on good terms I doubt that would happen).

Once you have that talk, ask your supervisor how the HR team at your company handles resignations and whether they need an email to supplement the verbal notice. Not sure if they’ll do an exit interview or whatever, and probably talk you through COBRA if applicable.

Yeah, I’m not saying anything until I have the formal offer. That much I know.

I work for the state right now, so it’s a pretty formal process I’d imagine. We have had a few other people leave in my time here and it has been implied as notice and a letter of resignation when they’ve sent out emails informing the rest of the team. I’m giving two weeks because I generally like the team, and that’s what’s needed to get paid out my accrued PTO. But, yeah.

If I don’t get anything formal by my meeting tomorrow morning I may push off giving notice until next week and email the new employer back and ask to switch the start date to get myself a few weeks off. I can’t imagine that would be an issue for them? They didn’t seem to be in a rush with hiring.

Considering the hang up is on their end, in the event your are still waiting on the formal offer, I can’t imagine a 10 day delay in start date is going to be a deal breaker.

Because he fucked up. Also like 98% of our troops were home from Afghanistan. We went from almost 100,000 to a few thousand. By all measures the war was already over.

That had already been done. We were way off our highs as far as troop levels are concerned.


Something something forever war though.

The issue isn't that we left Afghanistan, it's that we froze their bank accounts

No Joe fucked everything up by following Trump's withdrawal plan instead of listening to the Pentagon's plan to leave a few thousand troops there to keep the peace.

We had to freeze their bank accounts because we left the country to the fucking Taliban.

2500 troops there. Is that really a hawk stance??

These "sources close to Trump" LITERALLY just confessed to concealing official records to thwart an investigation, which is one of the crimes under investigation, 18 USC 1519.

Love how this excuse debunks his other excuses. What a fucking loser.

[drakan]

And remember by furnishing documents to the 1/6 com they are literally complying with a lawful investigation and the president can no longer claim EP while out of office. Also it doesn't seem like these documents have much to do with 1/6.

It's funny how you guys think by saying hawk or military industrial complex means you won the conversation.

I think it’s because you’re clueless is why we won the conversation

Leaving 2500 troops there so the Taliban doesn't take over doesn't seem like a hawk position it seems like the prudent thing to do. We have almost 200,000 troops overseas. Thank God we still have troops in Europe and the Pacific and there wasn't any stupid "forever war" nonsense.


2500 troops is not a lot and it not a hawk position. You don't fight a war with 2500 troops.
