This.... I don't care what the rationale is, I guarantee you'll be immediately 'disqualified' from 1/2 of all jobs you apply to simply based on that. You have to understand the HR/hiring person's mindset. 'Ok so you didn't like the guy that they hired....what if you think the same thing about someone working here? Obviously you aren't committed to the company'. Leave it out |

I've worked with many talented individuals that made it to "C-suite" positions with no degree, as well as many with degrees that are performing direct labor. Nothinig wrong with direct labor at all, just an example to back up my point. |

There's never been anything more insulting to me than giving the company the kindness of a 2 weeks notice, and getting a response of 'no....today will be your last day then', and you don't have an income/job for 2 weeks. Plus the aspect they wouldn't mind firing you on the spot if they needed to. |

Any reputable company will honor the two weeks of pay, whether they make you work for it or not. Unfortunately not all companies are reputable. |

The first step is to realize that you don't know crap about the company, etc. and most future employers won't be particularly fond of someone with very limited experience heavily criticizing the way things are done (even if things truly are crap). That's usually a sign of somebody who will never be satisfied or will always blame other people no matter where they go.
It's not a reason to stay, but don't badmouth the company when asked why you want to leave in the interviews for your next role. Just tell them that the logistics of the commute were harder than expected, etc. Also, note that many resume writing services will tell you not even to put a place on your resume if you were in the role for less than 6 months to a year. |

1. Do not bad mouth a former employer, boss, or coworker.
2. Don't put it on your resume. 3. If you decide to put it on your resume, simply give them an excuse such they wanted to change your shift to something that did not work with you or they wanted you to transfer to a different office. They will not verify this.
