Realone2016 Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 What's the etiquette when you lot are leaving a company, do you just disappear or send out the corny it was a pleasure working with you all emails to the team and propose a leaving doo? I have a feeling nobody would attend mine not sure if i should bother when my contract expires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O Fenomeno Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 Leave quietly If your colleagues cared for you they would throw you a surprise leaving do. Imagine the embarrassment if nobody turned up to a do arranged by yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the end just leave ur number and linkedin/facebook for anybody that wants to keep in touch. / If u are worried about no-one turning up, get a female colleague to organise it for you mate. That way if no one turns up its meh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

underwriter Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 its funny that, coz growing up i always used to think 'if you dont like a company, just dont turn up innit' then after working in all these companies ive been in over the years, the way everyone bangs out 'oh im leaving and keep get cards and celebrations and leaving drinks and all that'... for me i just wouldnt come in (well that would have been my mentality) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Realone2016 Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Interesting responses, only reason i ask is i see its the company culture for someone to throw an after work doo on their last day they send out invites in a bulk departmental email and people accept/ reject as they please. I've been for drinks a couple of times with the team when i was new but i'm not particularly social with any one like that so it would just be weird. Most sensible thing to do is send out a goodbye email and go on my way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brem Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 I'm new to my current company. Is it too soon for me to get pissed that I spent all Sunday doing someone else's work for a deadline today because they went on holiday and didn't put the hours in to catch up and get it done.

Simply D Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 think its time for a new job. literally walk in, delete 3/4 emails that might have arrived overnight, then jam waiting for something to break, or some fucktards trivial question.

It was chilled/easy before, but there was shit to do, but now we're in the process of being taken over, so all projects have been stopped/killed Literally I walked through the door 10mins ago...and VIP2 has now been loaded up, and in that time ive gone to the kitchen, bathroom, procrastinated :'( They want to send me for some training, I just need to see what the job market is asking for so I can steer it in that direction...
