As I mentioned in a GWC thread, I had an interview at a resort. Didn't get offered a supervisory position, but did get offered a desk clerk position. Full time, more money than I currently make, and equivalent benefits to what I currently get. Yes, please and thank you!
So I typed up my notice, which I kept sweet and short: I'm leaving for other employment opportunities and my last available day is August 4th.
I called Other MOD, because she said she wanted to be there when I gave my notice. I sent my notice via email on my way to work, walked into the office, and told Boss Lady (with Other MOD there) to check her email because I just sent her my notice that I'm quitting.
Boss Lady went to the bank, came back and told me thank you for the notice and to clock out and go home. Given how she likes to treat me like dirt, that was somewhat expected. (The last two employee cookouts we had, I was not informed of, nor were other CWs who exist outside of "Boss Lady's Favorite Employee Club". During shift changes, she would talk to Other MOD about stuff pertinent to my upcoming shift and act like I wasn't there. She accused me of fighting with staff, something I have never ever done, but because I simply asked some brown-noser to do their job they went crying to Boss Lady and she took their word for it. It was not becoming a pleasant work situation there. There's a whole MiM thread I could write about it.)
I start the new job in a week and a half. I have 2.5 weeks worth of vacation saved up, so I have plenty of money coming on my final check to cover the gap, and in fact am glad to have some time off to transition between jobs.
My new job is less responsibility, and more pay. Probably fewer crackheads, but I expect more entitled SCs at a fancy resort. (The interviewer was talking about how she was already getting calls from guests whining about how "the previous owners let me do such-and-such".)
The new job is at a golf resort that went into bankruptcy and closed last year and is reopening under new ownership. It's a big change from cheapy-cheap motel, and I know they will be cracking the whip hard on us to turn the property around and make it a success, but the prospect of that sort of challenge I find exciting. I know it will be stressful, but I'm hoping it will err more on the side of exciting and good stressful than depressing and soul-crushing stressful. So wish me luck!
