    I’ve accepted a job offer. It’s a big paycut, and finances are going to be very very very tight for a year or two. I’m going to have to make lifestyle changes, but it is probably time to grow up and do that really.

    I’m nervous about handing in my notice. The person I’ll have to hand in the notice to is a fucking nightmare. She screamed in the face of a previous quitter, and made everybody rearrange the office seating so that people quitting couldn’t sit near each other. She’s going to be a pain in the arse for months.

    But, positive. Feel like I’m making actual choices that I care about for once!

      Sounds like good riddance. If she yells in your face just turn around and walk away. She can’t fire you anymore.

        Yeah you’re right, I should’ve quit so many times over the last two years but I needed the money and I am more than a little uncomfortable with the thought of her being an absolute arsehole for the duration of my notice period

          Don’t beat yourself up over it. As you say you’ve made the choice now. If it’s at a bigger employer you can still report her to HR as your last act even if you’ve resigned. And again no-one can really retaliate since you’ll be outta there in a couple of weeks.
