What (besides politics) irritates you?

Let me update this for you

Dude, no shit

Although, it was for a good reason. Went with my pops to Oak Hill to catch the Senior PGA Championship on Sunday. Broadhurst blew it.

But I do know I'm right about this.

It’s all three for me, plus the addition of his “come and take it” shirt

Pretty irritated by myself, actually...and questions about the recall feature. If I recall an email before it's read (requested a read receipt), will it magically delete it with no trace? Or should I just accept that I've made a decision, for better or worse, and go with it? I sent it to HR and my immediate manager, as required.

Not going to go into complete details, but I sort of put in my 30 day notice at work today (as stipulated). I also sort of sent a word file as an attachment that contains, effectively, the most thorough renunciation of anything since the 95 Thesis. It's 11 pages long and is an epic rant. No curse words, but I'm pretty sure the vitriol is evident. You guys don't know me, but you know how I do with those things. Likely the only reason I haven't been fired yet is because the higher ups are gone for the day. There is only one other person who can do my job and they are on FMLA. I've been under a lot of largely unnecessary stress lately picking up other people's slack. Do I have another job lined up? No. Would I rather flip burgers than do this shit at this point? Yes. Am I financially fucked? Maybe three months of savings, which, yes, is financially fucked.

Sorta stuck between retracting it with my tail between my legs and leaving proudly if I can't recall it. I find ways to fuck up good things, but I spent six hours in the ER with chest pains last week. So I need to ask myself, is this job worth a heart attack? No. I've recently taken up a more positive mindset and I just can't with this place anymore.

First day off in three weeks tomorrow and I'm job hunting. Or I might just say fuck it and have some beers. I'm expecting my phone to blow up starting at 7am.

[daveshookme]

yes, if the email hadnt been read it's just deleted from their inbox without a trace.

but it's 95 Theses.

[scrock25]

Attach the fucking document so we can read it for fucks sake.

honestly, I would just show up, do your job, and pretend nothing happened. Maybe even be a little more cheery and cordial to people

This. I’d go in and do my job, knowing I’ve put in my 30 day notice.
Meanwhile HR and your manager are probably thinking..11 pages? You know what? Fuck this guy! Obviously a nut job. Get rid of him ASAP.

[Climb2safety]

If they fire you they have to pay employment, no?

Better to just accept your resignation.

Unemployment? No.
If they laid him off. Yes.

You don’t get unemployment if you’re fired

you absolutely can in most places, especially if it wasn't for conduct detrimental

[thebridge15]

I feel like they'd be able to prove they fired him with cause if they can present a manifesto

I am not a paralegal

defcon is gonna get this thread in the news one day

Sure, you can. Normally you don’t.

Most people don’t know that.

Exactly. Quick paper trail and he’s gone.

yeah but is writing a memo to your supervisor about what's wrong with the company conduct detrimental, or can it be argued it's an exit interview of sorts?

if he sent that memo out to other employees then yeah it's not good

Just an 11 page rant...to HR and immediate manager.
That’s not a memo.
