Will you share ideas??

Question

I am going to be quitting my job within the next couple of months. What would be a great "professional" way to tell them to kiss my *** and let them know how horrible it has been working here?

Answer 1

Hey there!
Good that you are leaving a lousy work place.

The best thing you can do is tell them where you are going and that its a great paying job and state the benefits. They'd die of envy. Act happy and be happy.

Answer 2

I would not push the issue if they don't want to know. You never want to burn bridges - unless you KNOW you will never have to use them as a reference. If they are curious, they will ask you - then you can politely tell them why. I try to live by Phil Jackson's managerial style - I believe in 5 positives for every 1 negative. That way you don't overload them, and you don't seem like you are just disgruntled - otherwise they will dismiss what you say, be happy to be rid of you, and continue on with whatever bad habits you are leaving because of. If they don't ask, don't offer - it will get you nowhere but frustrated, and if they cared enough to do something about it, they probably would have asked.

Answer 3

You know you will be moving on to something, anything else, and that in itself should make you feel quite relieved and excited. But, I do not believe in burning bridges. How often do we want to say something, but we refrain and then in the long run are happy we did. I say thank them for the opportunity to work at their company, tell them that working there has been an inspiration (you don't have to say what kind). They already know how they treated you and how much you hated being there. Don't give them the satisfaction of hearing you say it. You are bigger than that! Remember things could always have been worse - you could be like them. Good luck.

Answer 4

Never a good idea to burn bridges down before you leave, you may have to come back someday. Being "professional " is the best, thank them for the opportunities and tell them your moving on to advance your career. I've wanted to do what you want so many times but its just not best. Good luck on your new job.

Answer 5

Don't sweat it. A few months from now it will be a distant memory. Don't add any anger to it, just do what you need to do and move on. Focus on the positive, which is the next job.

Bottom Line: They don't care how you feel, they never did and they never will. And really you should not care either. It's just a stupid job and it's over now.

Answer 6

If they ask, in an exit interview have some specifics ready - "I didn't feel the support from HR was adequate". Try not to criticize people unless you can do it in a constructive fashion. If they don't ask, best to just leave. The people who still work their don't want to hear you gripe, leaving says you didn't care for it. You could need one of them one day and come to regret it if you burn any bridges.
