I need to advice someone very close to me.


This is the gist of the story!

I got paid last month's salary on the last day of the month.

Now 5 days into the new month, I got an better offer (read that to mean, I have been interviewed and chosen by a new place before this)

Am getting a letter of appointment tomorrow.

How do I close the chapter at the former place of employment neatly?

By returning last month's salary or by working for the next 30 day's free or just walking away? Is there any other option?

What is the position of the law?

Thanks for your input

let those who are working answer this pls... I'm here to learn

Forget last month issue.

The problem now is if there is notification of resignation in ur employment letter.

If der is, u no go fit go till u notify dem n complete d no of days.


If not, submit ur resignation letter wt a smile.

It depends entirely on your employment letter. What is stated under resignation/Termination? If none, then you are a free bird. If however they require you to provide one month notice or pay 'in lieu', then you can request new employer if you can resume in April or you pay your current employer 1-month salary

If you have a lot of idle cash, pay a month's basic salary to your current employer and jump ship. No time.
If you are working with a small organisation, giving one month notice could give them time to rope some petty issues to you.

resignation letter with a smile

Chei, fate can be unfair to some people. See as human being dey gamble between two jobs wen I still dey jobless one year after service.

God, show me ur impartial nature and rewrite my story. I will forever be grateful.

Return last month's salary how? Didn't you work for it? Quit complicating issues, tender your resignation letter and Walk.

Nna mehn, you better move on to the next level, if any issue arises, you'll know what to do then.....

Ahead ahead bro, no time to check time...

Drink alomo bitters and jump ship. No time.

if you have the time, work for free for the 30 days.

Drop your resignation and walk out like a boss.

Just like imma do too

What I will do. . . . .


Submit the salary to my old. Employers like a boss.
That's if the new job will pay well!....


Then move ahead to the new. Job...that's if their salary is actractive!! Veryyy actractive!!!

This person switching jobs now could have stayed at home for 3 years after service before getting his first job.

It shouldn't become an emotional burden as this will cripple the individual's capacity to take a decision. Ofcourse the burden of the guilt while taking the salary could be difficult to bear. Personally since it's a no loss situation, and there's nothing to lose, i advise this :

1.Speak to the HR, tell him the truth and ask for his suggestions.

2. Wait for reply from step 1

3. Take it easy, dont be to one to make an offer to return just one month's salary, let the company decide so you can leave in good light...


Don't be too hooked on any job, there's always a time to leave...

Submit your resignation properly so as not to burn your bridges. No one can decide but you what's right for your future. But leaving does pose a problem replacing you, the money must not be the issue, if you're honest you will work out a solution with your employer that you both will be happy with. This means sacrifice something to get matter properly closed so you can move on. Love, Sango.

Brother, ordinary 3 months of joblessness after service is too far a time to wait. One can easily loose his mind within that 'short' period.

Pay back one month salary and submit your resignation letter.
Thank me later.

Just walk away. Your former employer will calculate what you owe and show to you.
Happened to me and I walked way. They later sent me a letter that I owed them just my basic salary, allowances excluded. I left 30th of June 2016, the end of a month, 6 days after i picked my month's salary.

It is simple, not rocket science. Hand-In your letter resignation, thanking the company for the opportunity, bla bla. You will only be paid for the number of days you worked in the new month.

OR

Request from the new place for extra weeks to formalize things (or resume).

Just say, its about you

Anyway its simple.

If at the new job, you're told you can resume 1/4/17. Tender your resignation letter first thing tomorrow, to give them 1 month notice ahead, hence you get your salary for March, 2017.

But if you have to resume before 1/4/17, then return February's salary back to them and move on

You know what is right. Do it.

My comment goes thus:
1.How acquittance are you with the new company,are you sure they can be able to pay you promptly ?
2.What is the condition of service in the old and new company compare this two factors because of retirement and entitlement when you want to leave.
3.Your relationship with the old company is important because they may view your fast resignation as a betrayal due to the confidence they have in you.
4.I believe the salary in the new company is what you want to compromise on the old company.my advice is don't resigned just yet if you have not evaluate all the point I raised.
Best of luck

I assume it is stipulated on your letter "one month notice or 1 month pay in lieu of notice". In which case it is legally acceptable to resign with immediate effect and pay them 1 month. However if you are working on a project or handling key responsibilities, you may want to give 1 month notice so as to handover properly and maintain good reputation/ relationship.

Please note that when you give 1 month notice and work for that one month, you current employer will pay you your full salary for that month. You will not be working for free.

Working away is not an option.

If you need to resume earlier than 1 month, you should give them notice with the number of days you can afford to and pay for the remaining days with cash.

Some companies may accept any remaining leave entitlement as part of your notice and you pay or work the rest off.
