Yeah sounds like a typical, you ruined your name and also mine, but i won't give you more so it's attractive for you to stay situation.
People are stupid, if they have problems they blame someone else, in this case you.
Wish you good luck on your last days

Don't worry. It's just a case of hurt feelings. In his eyes the peasants don't run away from him, if at all, he throws them out. Now you have shown how unreliable and treacherous you are, so he does not want to keep you.
I have no idea how well things went before, but now you should be glad to get out of there.

After the BS that he put you through? I would have zero tolerance for that crap. Dealt with it once from a job shop that was contracting me out to Citigroup, the guy was a total arse about it and I told him so and hung up the phone on him. These people think that you're their personal slave.

So it sounds like it went something like this...
"Boss, I quit. I'm giving you time to do some knowledge transfer and some prep to find a replacement. I know that it is going to be a bit rough but I wanted to give you some warning so you aren't totally screwed. You know, just so things aren't completely in the weeds like when that other guy quit without a word."
PHB, with fingers in the shape of a little pyramid: "You can't quit on me! You're fired!" PHB begins banging his fist on the desk. "I'm going to call the Brute Squad! I'm king of the world! Mwuhahahahaha!" With that he leaps up, grabs a broom, straddles it and dashes out a 10th story window.
Same thing happened to me... they never did locate his body. Weird.

I start the new job the 25th. I've negotiated an offer, and got an informal email. I'll be getting the official today or tomorrow.
Seems like you jumped the gun a bit. Should've waited until you've accepted the official offer at a minimum. Given the way your boss went psycho on you, I really hope the new one doesn't fall through at the last minute.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I have an official offer from a second company, which is also a great place.

So you handed in the notice before signing on the line knowing the official offer?
That is a dangerous game to play in these tough economic times. You could have easily handed in your notice and the new employer changes their mind at the last minute for any one of a million reasons.
Anyway, Congrats on the new job! Hope everything works out fine.

Exactly what loctrice needs, Dave, some reassuring and comforting support

No ! I have been in the same situation, and refused (Because why should my job be worth a 20% rise after I first quit ?). They refused to pay my overtime - They actually deleted my hours from the system, and I had to sue them to have them pay the due vacation time I had not taken yet. I was sooooo happy I had refused the proposition of this bunch of clowns...

Good luck to you.
If the only time you're worth a raise is when you quit then you're in the wrong place.

I wasn't asking for more money. We had some terms when I was hired, and a process we were intending to implement. Those things were not met, and there wasn't an agreement anymore.

It sounds to me like you made the correct decision, based solely on the material you provided.
You should take the bosses reaction, and the fact that the daughter tried to get you to stay, as a compliment of sorts. If you were a sh*t bag, then they would not care, IMHO.
Best of luck to you, at your new company.
-- By the way, I have changed companies, a handful of times, and it is never an easy decision, or process.

Last time I handed my notice in (6 weeks) my boss didn't say another word from me for the entire 6 weeks they made me work out there, not one.
I used to go and hang around in offices he was in because he always walked out as soon as he could when I did.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

but I was late, and in a hurry so just looked for the word of the day on some website and used that!
