'I show[ed] the same courtesy I was given': Company who keeps ghosting new hire gets a dose of payback after she quits just as ghastly

When you start a new job, you go in on the first day and assume everyone you're working with to be very hands-on with you. It's called getting trained. You might be qualified for the job position, but you still don't automatically know the company's dynamics. So it just makes sense for manager and co-workers to be there for you. Unfortunately, that is not the experience this Redditor had at her new job/now-ex job.

She was hired and ready to start working. Her first day went fine expect that nobody was around to help her out. She sent email after email and nothing. She had to text a coworker that she knew just to see what she was supposed to be doing that day. Finally, she decided there were just one too many red flags and it was time to make her exit. 

The company technically has a form that you simply submit online that goes straight to HR when you want to quit. However, if you want to be courteous, you still do it in person. The thing is, nobody ever helped her in person throughout her time there, so she decided to pay it forward. She submitted the form and peaced out. If you're going to ghost an employee, you better be prepared to be ghosted back.
