Handing notice letter weeks after verbal notice












0















In December 2018, my boss and I have talked about the company’s situation (it still has issues), so he asked me if I’m planning to continue working here. I said no and that I have to go. He asked for details and I said I’m intending to be here until the first half of February 2019.



It’s almost February and my boss still hasn’t started looking for a replacement. (I would know if he did). I’m afraid he might be deliberately putting it aside because I agreed to stay until we have a replacement, which was my bad. Until now I’m scolding myself about it. Anyway.



Our labor law requires a 30-day notice period when an employee resigns, that’s why I wanted to give it already. Would it still be considered professional, given that my boss and I had talked about my quitting verbally? Wouldn’t it look like I’m hurrying my way out? What would be a polite response if he reminds me that I agreed to stay until a replacement arrives?
