He didnt want any more details, so I didnt elaborate any further!And yeah scotty, I will most definately be giving whatever notice my current employer wants/requires. Ive been there nearly 9 years, so ill let him decide how much notice he needs. Now it all depends on whether this new job will cough up enough $$$$, as the new position requires me to relocate.

If you are asked why you say its a personal matter and don't elaborate.tell the truth.any good lie must be based as closely as possible to the truth. Mickus, where abouts would the relocation be ?. BTW when negotiating your package, endevour to get your new bosses to pick up the relocation costs, eg removals, temporary accomodation , storage and unpacking as this can be a major cost to you otherwise.Don't make it a deal breaker , but if you don't ask you won't get ! This could also provide good leverage to negotiate bigger $$ if tradedand just not conceded. Most employers expect some to and fro on packagesGive me a call if you want any help with planning a package negotiation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donating Members 703 Member For: 20y 5m 3d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 28/08/08 10:01 AM Share Posted 28/08/08 10:01 AM Ive always found that the crazier the scheme the better it will work.Why not fake your own death in a horrible accident? Or hire some police swat team costumes and get your mates to come and violently arrest you for being a serial killer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DO the leg work to set it up for a sicky so they dont catch on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixfan Flaccid Member Donating Members 2,503 Member For: 21y 9m 2d Gender: Male Location: NOONAMAH, go figure..... Posted 29/08/08 01:11 AM Share Posted 29/08/08 01:11 AM There's only one reason to tell your supervisor you're going for an interview:Your planning to leave anyway....Once the "boss" knows your looking your commitment to the job will be in question and they'llstart looking for your replacement. Or if it's a plumb job your boss may apply for it, or kybosh your chances with a narky phonecall, just out of spite.the first they need know is the day you hand in your resignation.
