    Notice to leave...

    The writing is on the wall, project in the crepe, fools with tools are taking over. My 15 years experience is not welcomed, graduates are charging in, so I am happy to leave them to it.

    I would like to leave in a couple of weeks – my notice is now one week, but I am thinking about giving two weeks so that everyone knows where we all stand, and that clientco can plan to use me, or not as they wish.

    Are there any implications of giving more notice than contractually needed?

    Yeah. It means you have to ask the question if there are any implictations on a contractor forum and end up making yourself look like a right ******* tosser.

      No. Not that I can think of. They may welcome it or want to get you off site as quickly as possible.

          Give notice as per your contract, no more, no less.

            Legally - no. But it makes you look very good in their eyes. Remember to burn no bridges. Be nice. Resist the temptation to punch someone. Breathe. You are just a tree swaying in the breeze.

                What is it with you and Suity, can't make up your mind or fail to make decisions all the time ?

                Does your mum still breastfeed you because you cannot take care of yourself ? Grow a pair, deal with the situation in what ever fashion you feel is best and move on with your life.
