So I had some great news yesterday; I got a great job offer! Many of you know how horrible my boss is and how I have been anxious to get away. This is my chance! I can't wait!
So today I came in and gave my two weeks' notice-- and at the end of the day, out of the blue, my boss tells me not to come back! He says I'm a security risk with two weeks' access to a major retailer's files, and that they are going to pay me for the next two weeks, but not to come back in.
I was floored! Nearly in tears. My boss sat and watched me pack everything and wouldn't let me take any samples with me (I am a graphic designer). So after him reassuring me I was getting my full two weeks pay, I got my stuff together and left.
When I got home, SO told me I should have gotten his promise in writing. So I immediately called the office and talked to him and he said he'd have HR send it out first thing in the morning.
SO says I should call HR at 8 AM, and make sure it's being done, and if they don't know anything about it, that I should go into the office at 8:30. That way my boss can't say "she's lying, she just never showed up to work." What do you guys think? Should I be worried? I'm scared now! I can't make it without that two weeks' paycheck. My boss is not nice and a notorious liar but he was very nice about this and professional. So should I call HR tomorrow morning at 8 and go in if they haven't sent it, or just sit back and wait...? My dad says not to worry because if they don't do what they said they could get in big trouble and it's a labor board issue and I could file for unemployment and stuff-- ladies, any advice? Gents, too. Just to alleviate my doubts... TIA!
