» fortytwostars - So I got the job! Now, how do I get rid of this one?


What are the best ways to give notice?
The worst?

Am I obligated to give two weeks? Can I give, like, 12 days instead? What happens if I already have a doctor's appointment made for the last week I'm supposed to be here? Do I cancel the appointment out of respect to the Almighty Two Weeks? Do I go ahead and take the afternoon off of work, anyways, even though it will be my last week?

And when it comes time to give notice, how honest should I be? Tell them that this job made me CRAZY? Or just that I found a job with better compensation?
