[/quote] Turns out they already rented our apartment to somebody.. Soo, once I find out I'm moving, I get 12 days in a hotel, and the U-Haul for 3 days company paid...I'll have like 5 days to find an apartment once I move. I need to know when I'm moving like now.

Marie-Therese Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 When your boss will 'let' you leave? Are you leaving this job or transferring to a new location? Did you give notice? If you gave appropriate notice then your boss has no say-so in when you leave. If you are transferring then you have an issue where his refusal to accommodate you compromises your basic ability to seek housing. If it were me and this was an issue, and I were leaving this job permanently and not transferring, then I would pretty much say "I'm out" and go. Even if you did not serve out a 2 week notice, notice is considered courtesy and not required. Any future employer would certainly understand the situation if you explained to them why you were unable to serve notice. Of course, it is hard to be specific without knowing the particulars of your job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatherineM Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Stop showering. Make yourself so smelly, that he wants you to leave. If anyone asks why you smell, tell them your deodorant is already packed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totus Tuus Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Have your wife do it. If she gets put in jail at least you can keep working and she can sleep a lot which is what you need to do when your preggo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azriel Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 I say yes. But only if you'll agree to punch mine at the same time. No? Then I agree, let wifey take care of it. Pregnant women have the insanity plea locked up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IgnatiusofLoyola Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I changed my vote. At first I thought you should have your lovely wife do the deed. But, since this is a promotion/transfer within the company, even if you weren't fired for your wife's actions, it wouldn't look good on your personnel record. I was a human resources consultant for 20 years, and violence or aggressive behavior in the workplace (even by your wife) is to be avoided at all costs, even if your blood pressure goes through the roof. It could come back to haunt you. This kind of circumstance is one of the crummier things about growing up, although I personally believe that being a grown-up is MUCH better than being a kid, despite the myths/forgotten memories of "golden childhood years." Now that you're soon to become a father, Peanut will bring you lots of joy (and dirty diapers), but Peanut's eventual arrival also means that sometimes you can't do what you want to do, because Peanut needs food, nourishment, clothes, cable, and college. However, the good thing about being an adult is that you can now have a drink (or two) to feel a little better. If your boss can't decide when you can leave, tell him that if you find yourself without a home for a period of time that you will expect to be reimbursed by your employer for the extra expense. BTW--You're creative, I'm sure you will be able to find ways to get revenge on your boss at some point. Sometimes being passive-aggressive is the smartest way to succeed in the business world. Besides, as the saying goes, revenge is a dish best eaten cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I told Roamin to tell the boss that if we don't have anywhere to move our stuff by the end of August, we are moving it to his house, and I will stay there. My brother also thinks that he should tell the boss that if he's going to make us stay here any longer, he needs to start paying the manager salary, because we would be making more money if we had moved already, and that's kind of a big deal for us, right now! He is going to ask tomorrow for an actual date so we can plan, because I NEED to know, because I need to know where the heck Peanut and I are going to have our next doctor's appointment! But this is all getting SO overwhelming because we don't know when we're moving. I was actually excited about the move, but now I'm getting frustrated and emotional.

cmaD2006 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 well, since they're the ones that messed up the date, I think you may be able to expense it? And get the company to pay the days in the hotel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
