Do you have fun stories from your Notice Period(s) to share?

Currently serving the dreaded “notice period” , Go ahead and ask me whatever pops to mind.

Hi Everyone, Saying from personal experience, I have noticed that 10/10 times I am getting rejected if I say notice period to be 90 days during a Job Switch. All companies are looking for 30/60 days joiners. Even though they themselves have 90 days notice period in their organisation. But let us say if you say to HR that my notice period is 60 days and then get selected, how to manage? How to securely transition from one organisation to another. How to negotiate the notice period effectively?

This time period where the company will solidify the reasons you were leaving them in first place 1. What is resignation approval? I am telling you and will leave after the contract period. Why do I need to take approval? 2. FnF You put your papers and starve for food and water till your last day. Where is it written that salary is not disbursed during notice period? and will be given after 45 days from leaving Almost 3-4 months without money! 3. Become the bad person Anything and everything that happened over last few years, it is because of the person leaving. I know you didn't ask for the advice, but please document everything on mail. You'll have to prove your integrity till the very last minute. P.S. I thought I was leaving because of less money, but it is definitely the toxic culture.

So there was one company I was being interviewed at for position of product role. They told me to make a mobile app, not an actual one just on paper but it was a lengthy assignment and took me 5 days to complete it. (Day and night with minimal sleep) Now in the deep assignment discussion round the interviewer asked me why I built an app. In my head the answer was you guys only told me to build it😂😂 but I managed to fake something for sophisticated. Mention below if you have some funny interview stories.

Dropped papers suggest me good ideas to fuck around in work.

I'll be parting ways with my company in the next one and a half months. But currently, I dont have a job offer in my hand. Want to know if someone was in a similar situation, what routine you followed to get a job offer before your last working day.

I had given my resignation from my position and was told my last working day will be the next day itself. I had told the HR that I'm ready to serve entire notice period of 2 months but requested them to reduce my notice period as there wasn't much dependency on me. I was hoping the notice period will be for atleast 1 month but they had me leave the next day itself. When they told me next day will be my last day I had told them I'm ready to serve 2 months of notice period but still they let me go the next day. Is it proper or am I missing anything ?

I’m currently serving notice period. This is my second time switching. I remember last time, I worked the same irrespective of whether it was notice period or not. work was not too high or low. It was the same. but this time around, I don’t feel like giving it my all. Do you all feel the same?

Can we deny working on new stuff in notice period and just focus on KTs ? Or are we bound to work on whatever is thrown at you while serving notice. I am going to decline new work, what implications it can have?

I personally haven’t quit from any of my previous jobs. I was laid off but that was for my own good to be honest. What’s your story?
