    Make sure you go. But get pissed first.

      Well till the end of today that is........

      Some companies are really funny with you if you hand notice in early, back in the days of being a permie, I handed my notice in and got asked to leave the next day.

      Turns out they had a spate of resignations and were trying to save face. I had a months notice and they still paid me till the end of the month
      I bet that his salary isn't up to date though

        My last permie job, they had cocked up the contract wording. Either party was obliged to give four weeks notice, however either party could waive the right to give that notice.

        I waived the right and left after two weeks of notice, just to be nice. Got all my work finished on time, and my boss knew I was looking to leave before I'd got a contract to go to and was very supportive.

        Got incredibly merry at lunch, had leaving presentation (they bought me a lightsaber!), said my goodbyes and left mid-afternoon. As I was leaving, the solution architect called me over and asked me to fix a problem My boss pointed out that me being that drunk, coding on the system, was perhaps not a good idea - still got it fixed before I weaved my way out of the office.

            Always keep up to date commercially sensitive information stashed somewhere.

            Makes a great bargaining chip for getting what you are owed (nothing more as that would be for gain, and that's blackmail)
