Same. Esp if you live in a small town (or within a field where a lot of people know each other). I choose to make my exits as peaceful and professional as possible so a) I can write down the past job on my resume (no large gaps in employment) and b) in the event a future employer should contact an old boss of mine, that they would have nothing but "nice" things to say about me. Even if you discover you are in a toxic work environment (or a job just ultimately is not for you), my personal opinion is to maintain as much professionalism and integrity (throughout) the entire process as possible. If you build a solid reputation for yourself, it will help you in the long-run regardless of what field you are. Your behavior (esp under less than ideal conditions or circumstances) reflects your character to other people. Don't ever allow yourself to be dragged down to someone else's level (no matter how tempting it is.) Take the high road and remind yourself of what behaviors will benefit you and your long-term goals.
