ReplyDelete1A. When employed at JCPenny Portrait Studio I ended up quitting my position at their location. My boss was rude and had made racial remarks.
ReplyDelete1D. Never quit a job (expecially in such hard times with our economy) before you have a position lined up next. Also, explain why you're quitting. Don't simply say, "I quit." They take words like that to such offense. End things nicely, for future recommendations.
2. "Drop your boss an email every now and then to let him or her know how your new job is going." - This is such a good idea especially when you are planing to seek a position similar to one you already hold. An old boss that you are still close with will look a lot betetr on an application than a boss who despises you.
