Employee Tries to Bluff and 'Fakes' Their Two-Week Notice, Shocked When Employer Immediately Accepts
It's commonly said that you should "Always get something in writing" so that you can prove that something was said or an agreement was made. This generally is poor advice when you're doing something like feinting retirement or resignation in order to strong arm your employer into doing something you'd like them to do. Unless you really mean it, it's just really not a good idea… because by putting it in writing, you're literally giving them written notice, and if they're eager to be rid of you and your shenanigans, they might just accept.
That's exactly what happened to dear old Jane here when she tried to bluff by giving bogus two-week notice of her retirement. To her shock and horror, her employer quietly (and stealthily) accepted and then started making arrangements to get Jane gone -as fast as possible. When Jane came to work one day soon after, she was shocked to find that she didn't actually work there anymore!
