Boss hasn't responded to my resignation?

Question

I tried to meet my boss to discuss my resignation however, she was not in her office on the three attempts I made to meet with her. Therefore, I placed my resignation letter in her mail box along with a note that I had tried to meet with her three times and that I would also follow up via email. It has been 27 hours now with no response. Due to starting my new job I am unable to provide the minimal months notice and stated this in my resignation and notified her effective date of May 2, 2008.

Is this odd or should I take it that she is OK with my departure date?

Answer 1

she's obviously too busy to care (or finding your replacement) you submitted the resignation - go about your business and get ready to start your new job - you left it in her court and this is how she seems to deal with it - not very professional of her to not at least acknowledge she received it

Answer 2

Well, you can forward your resignation to your HR but you are still required to discuss with your boss your resignation for the turn-over, etc... Should time be an issue, I suggest you offer that you can allot a time for the transition even if you are no longer connected.
