I need to write a resignation letter, but i cant work my notice period?

Question

my notice period is one month and i cant work it. I feel really bad handing in my notice as it will hinder the work progress dramatically. I dont think i could stay around at work once i hand my notice in for a whole month...... sould i hand my notice in and go on a sicky??? or say summats come up and i have to go away??? my reference should be no problem as one of the guys said he'll sort the reference out for me!!! what should I do??? Help Pls. give me sum ideas and plans....thanx in advance

Answer 1

Tell them you have to leave town.

Answer 2

Ok, if you have no problem with the reference thing, then, just tell them you are leaving the job earlier for personal reasons and can't give them the 1 month notice. But make sure that person will still be your reference, you dont want to burn the bridges behind you.
