I am hoping to be re-employed soon by my previous employer (I was made redundant and left reluctantly). My current job is crap for so many reasons. When I resign should I tell my boss the real reason or just that I've been given the chance to go back to my old job.

If the boss is a positive good man u should tell him the true . But if ur boss is negative I shouldn't tell him the truth.

That's what I would do .

Just give them a general reason but don't tell them all the details etc that's really not their business anyway. Employment is an at-will basis, unless you are a contractual employee, which you must not be if you are going to quit.. They are right telling you that you may need your boss as a reference one day. Trust me, every job you ever work will come back to either help you or hinder you. It's up to you which one it does.

Don't tell him that your job was crap. Leave a good impression because you do not want an awkward moment if by chance you meet somewhere. Don't say anything that you will regret. Instead, be very accomodating to him so that you will leave him in peace. there is no sense to have drama. It is your last day with that employer. Make it as clean a break as possible.

You aren't required to tell your boss why you are leaving the company, nor should you.

Even if your current job is crap, it doesn't hurt to have someone there being able to give a good reference for you in the future.

When you resign, just tell your boss that the job that you are going to is better suited for your needs at the moment and that is that.

you should definitely give good reasons but don't ever be rude about it. It will never help you to leave on bad terms

You can just say the job isn't what you want to do because of.....etc

There's no harm in that. Don't tell them it's crap. What's crap for you might not be crap for someone else

Always leave an employer on good terms. You never know when you might need a reference. I suggest you just refer to the opportunity and don't dwell on the negative.

I agree that you should probably move on and not make a fuss. Then again, if it's not through anger but that you desire to "inform" them for other reasons, go ahead. Angry "goodbye" letters around my job (been here 11 years) are actually passed around and mocked. It's "sour grapes."

Well, I would not tell him the real reason just in case you should ever need him to give you a reference in the future.
