    So as a CPC-IT that’s accepted an offer already, should I withdraw from training first a few weeks before putting in my 2 weeks notice, or just wait until I put in my resignation letter? Management doesn’t know anything yet

    If you ever wish to be hired back by the agency I would put in a two weeks notice at least. You were CPC elsewhere so I doubt withdrawing would put you in a training failure status like it could at a first facility and make you ineligible for rehire. Reach out to a HR contact if you have questions about that. Mine were really helpful and it didn’t seem like the information trickled down.

    You aren’t obligated to tell them anything. Resign on your last day. Or better, just leave. Become the legend that just up and disappeared one day and no one ever saw again.

    Put in two weeks notice. Someone will correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t your ATM leave remarks about the employee when they quit that can be used in future rehiring? As fun as it would be to just stop showing up and not tell anyone this is what I would do. Don’t burn bridges because maybe after you get citizenship the FAA is offering hiring bonuses or something and you wanna finish out and get a real pension instead of that trash you’ll get at 62.

    Yes and they will be consulted on reinstatement as well.

    Thought that’s what I read. It seems like poor planning to go out with a bang and possibly close those doors you may wish to reopen. As someone who has wanted to move every four years in my 16 years doesn’t the option again lol.

    Plus you could wash out and maybe not want to stay in the land down under. Or easily find a new employer to sponsor you.

    There’s an Australian website where they are gonna be like. I’d rather train OTS than these American controllers.

    Two week notices are bullshit, in general, unless you plan on using someone in Management as a reference. It’s not like the FAA needs that two weeks to fill your slot, or to hire someone and let them take over an assignment.

    In general probably a good idea to put in a two week notice but yeah this isn't the corporate world and I couldn't really see too much negative about just going in the day of and quitting. Unless you want to get rehired back down the road and your ATM is an ass

    Yep, if you want to keep does open, just do the right thing. If you want to feel really good about yourself for a few minutes quit like a douche, so be it. It’s each persons choice on how to carry themselves.

    The whole point of notice is to train your replacement. They ain’t training anyone in 2 weeks

    In the corporate world that would 100% burn bridges. It could potentially burn bridges if you wanted to get rehired if your ATM is an ass. I agree however that they won't be able to even get another body to train in two weeks though. It's more just to protect yourself if you want to make sure you'll have the best opportunity at getting rehired down the line if you want that option 🤷‍♂️

    It doesn’t give them time to replace you but it gives the schedulers time to fill your shifts if needed.
