I am thinking of quiting the job that I currently have(just can't stand it here anymore!)I was wonder if there is a good way of telling my bosses that I am leaving. ( Yes I would like to say take this job and shove up your asses but that I don't think would be a great thing to do.)Or work in my case.  ~Thanks~

Before you leave, have a job already lined up.  Normally you should give 2 weeks notice in case you need to go back in the future.  Put your resignation in writing.  In your resignation tell them that you were grateful of the opportunity to work for them and that you learned alot.  Say that you have found another position that fits better into your future.  Do not slam them, your boss, the company, or your job.  We all want to from time to time say "Shove it!" but manners mean more than emotional outbursts.  Do the right thing and you will be a better person.

you have to talk directly to your boss, do not send a letter it would make it formal and discourteous specially when taking into account the kind of relations you have with him.\ni would suggest you ask your boss for the notice period he thinks he needs till he gets a replacement. this is the least you can do if he was that good to you and your family. assure him that you would give whatever training needed to the replacing employee or that you would be available anytime they need you or need any information from you.\nbe honest about your reasons for leaving, if he has been that caring so far, i guess he would remain!\ngood luck

Make a list of the pros and cons.  Could you find a similar flexibility with another job?  It never hurts to look for a job, but I wouldn't quit until you have a better situation lined up.

Is it possible to change jobs and move to a competitor?  Or, another sales job in a different industry?  Being able to sell is an amazing talent to have and very transferable.  \n\nIf you're the best sales person in the region, that's a fact and it doesn't matter what your boss says.  Sometimes you just have a crappy boss who is never pleased with what you do.  The problem is the boss and it's probably because they feel insecure.  Try to find compassion for the other person (i.e., maybe he's scared of losing his job, maybe he was picked on in school and you remind him of someone, etc.).  \n\nAlso, instead of worrying what they think, focus on what you know about yourself.  In your case, you know you're the top sales person.  Own it.  Be proud of it.  Broadcast it.\n\nSometimes, managing perceptions is all it takes.  Put some effort into communicating all the hard work you do.  If you don't get sales, talk about all the calls you made and then just shrug it off.  \n\nYou could also try speaking with your boss about this issue.  However, the key is to not do it when you're pissed off.  The other thing is to try to really listen to what they're saying even if it comes out sounding like crap.  Some people lack communication skills.  Really try to focus on a solution and a common goal.  \n\nSometimes being really honest helps too.  Rather than act like you don't care what he thinks, tell him you value his opinion and you feel very demoralized when he does x and that you were wondering if your perception of the situation was a bit off.  Don't blame.  Always chalk it up to differences in how you communicate.

Well, I'll admit that I have done things for my boss that weren't in my job description. While at first it seemed like I was just helping him out, I began to realize that there was no reciprocation on his part. Questions that begin with, "Would you mind doing me a favor..." or "Since you're going that way could you..." can be hard to navigate.\n\nIt can be difficult to know how to handle a situation like this, especially if you feel as though your job is being threatened. Telling you to just go straight to the HR department is the easy answer, but it's not easy to do. Filing a report can cause a lot of stress for you and those you work with.\n\nYour personality will play a big role in how you deal with it. If you are a person who does not mind conflict, then I would tell you to go to HR and report the situation. However, it may be wiser for you to just back out quietly. Unless you are very invested in the company, I would say that it's not worth the effort to wave your arms and call in the law. Who's to say you wouldn't run into this situation with others in the organization? Things like this often indicate a weak upper management.\n\nI think what you need to decide is how important your current job is to you. If it's important enough to begin a legal investigation, then go for it. Otherwise, I'd just disentangle myself as quickly as possible. I can't help feeling sorry for the person who will take your job if you do decide to leave.\n\n(My decision was to quit and get a job elsewhere.)

I think that is really stupid!  You should get a new job in the same feild. If your boss treats you that way you dont even want to be working there

Yep, I quit my last job.  I worked in a furniture store, and for the most part it was okay.  But customers yelled at me for things I had no control over -- do they really think a cashier has control over the color of wood finish a bed has?  And my boss was a pain, she would yell at me for not going up to a customer and asking if they needed help every 20 seconds.  Excuse me for not wanting to harass people.  And worst was one of the assistant managers who was incredibly condescending.  So I quit and went back to school to get my masters.  Soon I'll own their asses.

Just tell her the truth and if she begins to go off, just leave.  You don't have to worry about seeing her anymore if you quit so who cares what she thinks.  Or you can stand your ground and when she begins to go off just say, "Look!  This is exactly why I am quitting.  I deserve to be treated with respect and any manager that runs a respectable business would know that it is inappropriate to humiliate an employee in front of other coworkers.  As for you constantly accusing me of theft without any proof...some people would consider this harassment and grounds for your dismissal."  That should shut her up.  Good luck.  I've had one too many bosses the same way.

Write a polite letter stating your departure date and thanking your employer for the opportunity to work for them.  You do not need to tell them your reason for leaving in the letter, but leave the option open for them to ask.  Many employers reserve a right to a "departure interview" where they will ask why you are leaving, but a lot of places don't take the time to ask, they just work on replacing you.  Here's an example:\n\nDear Boss,\n\nPlease accept my resignation of my position as *whatever*.  My last day will be *two weeks from date of letter*.  I have enjoyed my time at your company and greatly appreciate the opportunities provided for professional and personal growth.  I will be happy to speak with you further at your convenience.\n\nSincerely,\nMe

It sucks to lose a job after being there for 8 years and really not having a say as to who would be coming in after all the changes, etc.  Stick to the facts.  Leave out the emotional part of it.  All you have to tell them is that you were downsized, right-sized, or restructured out of a job.  Don't talk about the things that were not in your control, like the changes in management or being on the higher end of the pay-scale in the department.  Good luck!

I try to put myself in the other's shoes in regard to if I had to hear this news, who would I prefer to hear it from?\n\nThe answer is clear.  I would much rather get it from my office mate than be embarassed in front of my boss as a new employee.  I would also respect the person for being straight with me and not whimping out by telling the boss.  After all how hard is it to figure out where the complaint might have come from?  After talking to the boss, the guy is libel to come back and ask, "Do you think I smell?"  Then what do you say?\n\nTell him politely as possible over lunch one day.  He will be grateful to you.

I would say it's "because of unethical behaviour of my current boss".  I wouldn't offer any more than that unless they asked for specifics.  Even then I wouldn't be comfortable sounding like I am bad-mouthing my old boss. \n\nEven though you are absolutely right to leave for those reasons, new bosses don't care to hear about how bad your old boss is (in my experience)

It is proper to give you former employer a two week notice that you are leaving.  That means in order to start at the new job on June 12th, you must give your current employer notice today (Friday 5/26/06.)\n\nI think it sounds okay, the new boss is probably just a bit anxious to get you started.  Basically, you are his new purchase & he wants to show your stuff.  A quick phone call to the new boss explaining that you want to give ample time to your current employer will show your integrity and loyalty to a job.  I think the new boss will understand.  If he doesn't understand then he is someone you don't want to work for or with.  I would not say anything to your current job UNTIL you talk to the new boss.  If the new boss doesn't return your phone call today, then keep pushing the 2 weeks from the date you speak to the new boss.\n\nIt is always a bit scary when making a change.  Just trust your instincts, pray you are making correct decisions & don't burn any bridges, especially in the workforce.  Word gets around fast and if you burn a bridge you could get a bad reputation.  Employers in the same field get to know each other & talk.  \n\nPlus keep in mind that you do have a signed piece of paper stating the new job offer.  Save that paper, God forbid anything would happen, you can use it in your defense.

you could talk to your boss and see what she thinks or does ...and if you think shes not taking it seriously  then just ride it out while you look for another job. i had similar circumstances but i talked to the boss and things worked out

Bosses can be a real pain.  I have one that meets every qualification of a "Bad Boss".\n\nI'm dealing with it for now, and just putting up with him.  My job and the company aren't bad.  \n\nTypically it's good to stay at a place for at least 2 years.  It looks like you're more stable. \n\nA good indicator of when you need to leave a job is if you dread going into work on Monday, when it's only Friday night.\n\nIt's not worth your health.  Besides, the economy is better now, so I'm sure there's more jobs out there...

Give your boss a reasonable amount of notice before you quit your job.  How long have you been with the company?  How long would it take to train someone in your position?\n\nGive at least a minimum of two weeks notice, but a month would be nicer, so that your boss has time to fill the position and get someone trained before you leave.

I think this situation would be difficult for most everybody.  You're probably right about resigning quickly.  You might just end up with another bad job out of desperation.  \n\nYour boss screams and shouts because deep down he (I'll assume it's a he) feels powerless and needs to be aggressive to get his way.  Try to remember that he does this out of weakness and not strength.  Genuinely strong people don't need to act this way.  If you can view it as his problem then you won't take it as personally.\n\nTry to document all that happens that is inappropriate: words said, body posture, tone of voice, etc.  Keep dates, times, locations, etc.  In case things go badly you can have this documentation to back you up.  Your boss probably isn't doing this so your case would be stronger.\n\nAcknowledge what your boss says but ask that he say it in a more polite manner.  You may have to keep reminding him of this one :)  If you're able to stand up to him in a firm, yet nonconfrontational way my guess is he would change.  Bullies respect strength.\n\nIf nothing changes, count it as a character building experience and move on!  Hope that helps.
