Yeah. I had given my notice in December to retire at the end of Jan. They came back and asked me to extend and I did, for another 60 days
A week before my final day, my boss came back and made me an offer to extend another 60 or 90 days. This being after I had told him I had no desire to extend for that long. 30
Days maybe. He and HR never came back with an offer for 30 days and the 60/90 day offer wasn’t worth me losing my sanity.
They basically had 48 hours for me to train/educate my replacement on customers and upcoming contract renewals
The poor kid was destined to failure.
I even asked my boss why they didn’t start serious extension talks earlier. He had no answer
Bottom line they figured I would do, being a nice guy etc
They are paying the price for their lack of long term vision now
