Sonatine 11262 Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 Always best to leave on your own terms i find, rather than on theirs (or the sack as it's more commonly known). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 20941 Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 Mind you, have you stipulated adequate loafing time in your new job? You know, your new employers might actually want you to work.... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manc-mag 1 Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 3 month notice????!!!!!! Seems a bit excessive. If you've got the new job then presumably you've already had the reference off them. Can't see any reason to stick around in that case if you want away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a reference yet, and I signed a contract agreeing to the 3 months so I'm a bit stuck. Legally I don't think they can enforce it because it's outside of European law or something like that, but I don't mind doing it really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canny mileage to Teeside, and you must have been paying £40 a month in the tunnel at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cant tell me it'll take them three months to find a replacement calculator jockey! In all seriousness though, despite the strict legal contractual position, the only thing that'd keep me to any notice period where I was desperate to get away would be the threat of not getting a reference if I didnt work it out. I mean beyond that if you leave early then okay you're in breach contract but it's hard to see what an employer would sue for. Mercenary.......moi?
