No More Notice?

Is the old school two weeks notice dead? Are more people saying, "See ya later, bye" instead of tendering a resignation?

Key topics:

✔️ Open, honest communication only works if employees do not feel threatened. Can you truly say that your company can accept criticism or feedback without retaliation?
✔️ Now that so many people are WFH, the furtive cloak-and-dagger of faking dental appointments and car trouble aren't necessary anymore. People can easily attend a phone interview at lunch or before/after work.
✔️ Employment is more transitory now than it has been for several decades. There's no 30 year career at one place with a gold watch and pension at the end. So why is there still a stigma about resigning?
