Post by jamsie6966 »

How much notice do I have to give Royal Mail to leave for another job I’ve worked there for 19 years 8 months, the workload is horrendous, completely exhausted every night have had enough 😞

You do realise how close you are to the 20 year service award, would be a shame to miss out on your Dom proudly presenting you with a small plastic badge.

You've missed the optimal window for making a resignation really sting. Based on the examples of former colleagues, you really want to walk out around the 15th to demonstrate your love for management at this pressing time.

I've heard of people phoning in to give notice and not coming in again...maybe they have extra holidays that make up their notice period? Not sure but they made a phone call and that was that.
