Question

how do i tell my boss i quit?

i really don't like working there no more

Answer 1

The most important thing is to remain calm, polite and civil about it. If you don't at least do that, everything else is moot. Just tell him you think it's time to move on and do something else in your life, and you appreciate the opportunity. Never say anything negative towards the company, it needs to be all about you and that you want to move on.

Answer 2

Unless you have a good amount of money saved up, you need to have another job lined up before you quit this one. Once you have a new job, write your boss a short, polite resignation letter. All you have to tell him is that you're resigning from your position and what your last day will be. If you want, you can thank him for the opportunity of letting you work there and wish his company well.

You do not have to tell him why you're quitting - it's none of his business. This doesn't mean he won't ask though. Some bosses may even take it personally. Just stand your ground and tell him that you found a job that was better suited for you and your skills. Don't mention about higher pay or anything that he can take defensively. Even if you can't stand your boss, don't be rude or mean. Burning bridges is not a good idea. You may need him for a reference in the future.

Another thing is - don't tell any of your co-workers that you are planning on quitting. Your boss should not be the last to know and believe me, IT WILL GET AROUND!

Good luck!

Answer 3

First, find another job. Then, tell him that you found another job that is a better fit for you and tell him when your last day will be. Give him two weeks notice. There is no reason for it to be more complicated than that, and if he wants to make you feel guilty because of the raise, don't let him. Just keep it short and sweet. But make sure you have another job before you quit. Good luck!

Answer 4

Write him a letter saying you are resigning. Just say the raise is great, but you've found something with more money. $8.25 is not a lot of money, so it's definitely believable to say that you need a higher paying job.

Answer 5

Sounds like you are doing a great job, why not talk to your boss first and let him know, what is bothering you. If you don't want to approach your boss than just tell him that you are giving your 14 days notice for personal reason. If the boss wants to know, just assure him, that it is not the Company why you are leaving. Don't burn any bridges, because you might need your boss as a reference or you might want to get re-hired. Good luck!

Answer 6

You should never quit like that. Go into work and hand in your notice, all you need to do is write it down and give it to your boss. Dont blame anyone in your workplace or the work environment for your leaving, just say that you feel it is time you moved on to other fields and ask them to give you a reference for the next job that you apply for.

Answer 7

Submit your resignation in writing. Thank him/her for the opportunity to work there and then say that you are giving a two week notice of your intent to resign. BE POLITE! You may need a reference someday or you may want to return. And do work out your notice.
I hope you have another BETTER job before you quit the one you already have.

Answer 8

I gave mine the bird. He laughed so hard, gave me a raise to 32.10 an hour been there for 5 years. We are better friends now.

Answer 9

You can either tell him/her in person or write a resignation letter. Most places of employment require resignation letters.

Answer 10

Write an official notice of 2 weeks, and give it to him and tell him in person. Say "I have to put in my two weeks' notice today. Thanks for everything." If he asks why you're leaving, say "It's time for me to move on."

Always always always give two weeks' notice. And SHOW UP for the last two weeks.
