it's my last week at work should i go in or toss it off for a week?

Answer 1

Toss it off for a week, why not x

Answer 2

Go into work -- it is not what you do, but how you do it. Even though it is your last week there you should still have it in you to finish what you started dont toss it as if it never mattered, after all it was not tossed to you when you were hired I want to think it was a great job whle it lasted and now you are moving on you should show some good old fashion gratitude. Keep this in mind you may need to call the old job one day for any reason and should you walk away that last week you would be showing that the job was nothing to you after all, it is never good to burn your bridges behind you. Do the right thing in the right manner-- and good luck in your future endeavors.

Answer 3

If you already have a job to go to then "toss it off for a week" (although that sounds a little bit rude, and after a wekk might be uncomfortable).

If you don't already have a job, then you'll have to work like the rest of us pretend to do.

Answer 4

Don't burn bridges, you don't know where people can reach.

If you ditch this last week, and you later apply for a job that would need your managers name for reference, they are at liberty to disclose that you were unreliable by leaving them short staffed just because it was your last week.

Or what if you were applying for a really powerful job later on, and then you went to meet the hiring panel, and your former boss was on the board. You could be faced with kissing your new dream job in the 'donkey-horse Hybrid Animal'

Say you were leaving a job in a car hire place, and later on, you may need the product of your former company. If you have disappointed them, they are less likely to offer you possible discounts on their products.

Think about it. Do you really want to burn these relationships?

Answer 5

Toss off for a week? That might get sore.

Couldn't resist sorry- If you want a reference from your employer I'd go in- but if you don't then don't bother.

Answer 6

As an employer we have people who have done this, on their reference (no matter how many yrs later) I tell them only whats required by law & if the new job asked about performance I state: 'All I can tell you is they worked here from Jan. to Sept. 2006", the new employer gets the meaning. Hope that helps!

Answer 7

Go to work because

karma
you reap what you sow
self-respect
professional pride
courtesy to your employee and co-workers

My boyfriend always worked hard and respected his employees and acted dutifully at work . For a long time with no reward . Then one day an ex colleague who had become a millionaire rang up , told him he had always admired his attitude & gave him the job of his dreams.

Answer 8

Generally it is advisable to go in. You may need them for a reference at some point and not showing up your last week - will negate any positive feelings they have towards you.

Answer 9

toss it off for a week, why not. it is not like they are going to fire you

Answer 10

go in and conduct your harshest revenge on the people that really p*ssed you off thats what i would do!!! but then again im evil :>

references don't mean much, there is other people you can references from and its perfectly legal to not use your last employer as one
