The nap to meeting ratio is increasing.
Wish they'd give me garden leave. Not allowed to say anything to clients. Just feel like I'm going through the motions.
At least I'm getting paid.
I've heard notice period weeks drag on because you can't do anything about them. You'll have to find a way to make the most of them and not let it get to you too much
A company wide email calling out the management for being cunts usually sorts out a notice period from my experience.
Sometimes you need to say what needs to be said. Management will hate you but you'll forever have your coworkers' respect
Naps and video games help when I'm working from home lol
"And you trust me not to do that?! Cause maaaaaan insert laugh. I fuckin wouldnt!"
Honestly, nothing is stopping you from must leaving. Notice periods are a professional courtesy. You won't be paid for the time you're not there, but they can't hold back your entitlements (like annual leave).
