So i'm writing a notice letter for work atm (ill be on BC2 after). Im really not sure what to write though. Tbh they have been good to me but i never planned for staying very long despite being a permanent member of staff. I want to leave the end of the month and only need to give a weeks notice but I decided i might let my manager know my intentions.

tl:dr resignation letter what to write.

Technically speaking they can't give you a bad reference (just refuse to give you a reference).. also I notice from working for a large multinational evil corporation, that we don't give references either - just a note from HR saying so and so worked here from this date to this date in this position. Actual butt kissing personal references are basically given by managers without HR's involvment.

largely thanks to the likes of compensation lawyers !

Companies can be held liable for the references they give , so if you have a glowing reference for an employee who then turns out to be terrible at their next job , the company runs the risk of being sued , likewise if they give a bad reference , they are likely to be receiving a call from compensation lawyers 4 free or the like wanting to sue for the bad reference on behalf of the ex employee , hence most companies will confirm only your job title and dates you were employed.

Making Hypo's idea even more attractive smile.gif

Hell i even used to work for a big (evil) corporation that used to have a contract with a private investigation firm to run checks on all new employees as well as drug and alcohol screens.
