I need to know how to quit my fast food job! I have a better job lined up, but am not sure how to quit.? |
I currently make $7 at my fast food job, and have been offered $10 at an office for filing, and little arrend things. I have worked at my fast food job for a year and still haven't recieved a raise. I hate being a cashier. I need to know how to write a two weeks notice, being polite. I don't wont to work for the two weeks, but i don't want to have a bad refrence on my future resume. HELP! Thanks ahead. Short, sweet, and to the point: thank you for the opportunity to work with your organization. I recently received another job offer which will provide for more growth and development. I respectfully notify you that my employment with your organization will terminate on ______ (fill in the date). respectfully yours, XXXX Best of luck to you and congrats on the new job!! JT most employers are fine once you let them know (we employ ppl so this is how i know) and as long as you are honest it will be fine, just let them know that you have found a new position elsewhere that is better suited to your needs and you require to leave this current job asap. they should be ok with it, and if they arent what are they going to do fire you? p.s. dont worry bout having a bad reference, as long as you tell people up front they should be ok... Just tell them, that you need to work in a more challenging environment, and that you've been offered a job somewhere else. That is is an opportunity you cannot pass up. And that you appreciate the job they gave you.Then tell them, this is your two week notice, and that you would like to fill out any paperwork if necessary. Although I don;t think there is any paperwork to be filled out. Usually it is not a big deal at all, I've done this a few times. Hope that helps. You don't need to write it at all and if you do the fewer words the better. Politely thank them for the opportunity to work for them and then tell them you have decided to pursue other opportunities. Take the letter in person and hand it to your boss, in private. If they aren't in a private office tell them we need to talk can we step outside or into your office. Then explain you have been offered another job and accepted. Tell them your new employer wants you to start right away so you are hoping they can allow you to leave without two weeks notice. You will nearly always be allowed to leave they don't really want short timers. All you need to do is write a quick note to your manager. Dear Manager, Thank you for the opportunity in your restaurant. I have learned alot over the last year. At this time I must turn in my two weeks notice. My last day will be __________. Sincerely, ______________ That's all you have to do. Some managers will make you work out a notice, some won't. It is always best to work out a notice and leave on good terms....you never know what may happen in the future. Manager's always appreciate the crew members that turn in and work out a notice. Fast Food Manager for over 15 years. if you already have the office job secured then write up a resignation giving at least a two week notice. the best way is to be honest and work the two weeks. it will be a plus on any resume you may submit for employment in the future. in your resignation tell them when you will be leaving and that should be sufficient. |
