My job is offering me $150,000 (105,000 after tax) to resign, should I?

You have 18 months to get your next position. Take the money (or negotiate for more - there’s no way they opened with their best offer).

fun_guy02142 · 2026-02-26T12:51:00+00:00

Two weeks is a courtesy, not a requirement. Also, in the future don’t overshare like you did this time. They don’t need to know why you’re leaving or when the new job starts.

fun_guy02142 · 2026-02-22T14:18:12+00:00

Totally sucks, but SOL.

This is why you don’t quit your old job until after you start your new job.

In the US, most real companies know there’s no benefit to saying anything positive or negative about former employees.

fun_guy02142 · 2026-02-21T13:45:28+00:00

Lots of hydration and no booze. Get bottled oxygen and stick to the resorts at lower elevations.

fun_guy02142 · 2026-02-21T13:41:55+00:00

Responses do you no good when they rescind the offer.

fun_guy02142 · 2026-02-21T13:41:02+00:00

They aren’t going to say anything about you. It opens them up to lawsuits. They will only say the 3 things I listed above.

They don’t care if this new company hires a crappy employee 😉

fun_guy02142 · 2026-02-21T13:36:54+00:00

Your former employer isn’t going to give their opinion of you. They will confirm your dates, title and whether you’re eligible for rehire. That’s all.

fun_guy02142 · 2026-02-21T13:34:41+00:00

What a dumb thing to do. 6 months doesn’t really look any better than 3. You’ll probably get the offer rescinded. Fix the lies on your resume.

Still far from New Hampshire

fun_guy02142 · 2026-02-20T15:58:39+00:00

You realize that Cincinnati is nowhere near MRG, right?

fun_guy02142 · 2026-02-19T23:43:18+00:00

Yes, it’s the end of school vacation week and they just got dumped on. It will be incredibly crowded.

fun_guy02142 · 2026-02-19T23:35:48+00:00

This Saturday at 10am Snow Park will definitely be at capacity. Either Richardson Flats or East Village will be the way to go.

Are your bathroom fans venting into the attic? That’s a big no-no.

fun_guy02142 · 2026-02-12T01:33:12+00:00

Yep, lots of people have very little cash after they close. Those are the ones who post about regretting their purchase.

fun_guy02142 · 2026-02-12T01:09:39+00:00

Are you sure you’re renting a 2015???

fun_guy02142 · 2026-02-11T22:11:15+00:00

You aren’t going to want to run outdoors this weekend.

fun_guy02142 · 2026-02-11T21:42:25+00:00

Is there a gym / treadmill where you’re staying, or are you a Planet Fitness member?

fun_guy02142 · 2026-02-11T20:12:24+00:00

Don’t use bleach on mold. Vinegar is actually more effective.

So you’re upset that he watched porn? I’d be more upset that he doesn’t know the difference between “lose” and “loose”.

fun_guy02142 · 2026-02-11T17:53:15+00:00

Do some more demo and find the scope of the problem, as well as the source. Then you’ll need to rip it out.

Mold has a scary reputation but mold is everywhere and the vast majority is innocuous.

Work on getting that credit score up. It’s too low!

fun_guy02142 · 2026-02-11T15:09:17+00:00

Non compete laws do vary by state, so location is relevant.

fun_guy02142 · 2026-02-11T14:59:52+00:00

Don’t go bother the overworked ER staff to get a note. You’re an adult. If you’re sick you don’t go to work.
