I would reccomend not letting anyone at work know until that information is necessary. That could potentially make the remaining time at your current job quite awkward.

If they can fire you without warning, don't tell them fucking shit.

Hint: They will always maintain the ability to fire you without warning.
The name is wackyteen for a reason. Never doubt.

If I was leaving the job Im currently at, I wouldnt tell anyone, just give my 2 weeks and hope, for their sake, its enough time for me to train my replacement.

At my old job I let them know, because I was attempting to use it as leverage to get a raise.
It takes zero effort to be a good person.

I'd tell my friends Hell If they tattle on the boss w/e. I used to openly joke with ppl in front a boss how Arby's was hiring and paying more and how we should all just quit.

I really didn't want to work fast food then but geez. I guess it depends how much ya like the job and all. I am very open now.

At my current job, yeah, I would let my boss know. It's government work, so they can't just fire me (my boss wouldn't do that anyway). Plus they'll need time to train staff on my duties

Ive had really good bosses who believed that if you were successful, they were successful. So I always told them because they would write amazing reference letters and prepare me for my transition.
If you're not getting promoted, it's not because you're not good at your job. It's because you're good at ONLY your job.

I would still give shit boss/job hypothetically a two week notice of sorts. But I'd have no reason to hide at all if I was thinking or actually leaving.

I wouldnt tell anyone I was actively looking.
When I hit the interview process, then Ill let my besties know.

My boss currently plans to find another job. She told some people in another department that she talks to, but made sure that her boss wasnt around. She also told me not to tell, and Im not a narc, so I wont tell.

We all just assumed everyone was looking.

The running joke is that if anyone's calendar has private appointments was to say "guess they're at an interview."

My work is very supportive with this stuff. I just tell my boss, and they also give me advice and stuff :P
