We have a guy that is melting down right now.
The guy at my place offered two weeks notice and was politely told that it wouldn't be necessary, then he was given an escort out.
Frankly, I'd welcome an escort (he didn't, quite loudly actually). If someone cuts off my accounts and escorts me out, then I can't get blamed for any issues. But whatever, he's going to have problems if he stays in the area.
I'm hearing that hiring in my area (the Southeast) is picking up. Managers are talking about salary reviews, to be sure that they're staying competitive. First time I've heard that kind of talk in awhile. Things might be picking up - you hearing anything in your area?
