You can have it. I'm not a fan of lox.

I started the new job 4 weeks ago. 

The job hasn't been quite what I expected, that have me doing and learning a lot of stuff out of my wheelhouse.

I got a email from Amazon Project Kuiper wanting to interview. Project Kuiper is a plan to provide broadband internet via a constellation of satellites.

Amazon to offer broadband access from orbit with 3,236-satellite ‘Project Kuiper’ constellation

Trouble formating...

I just don't feel the new job is a good fit. If the Kuiper thing pans out, salary etc... is it okay to give the current employer two weeks and move on?

I've never done that.

I still haven't found a picture of the old shul Brotherhood breakfasts with whitefish. I hated it as a kid because of all the bones. But it does taste good.

Received a certified letter that said [company] has filed an Abbreviated Notice of Resource Area Delineation with the Conservation Commission, and we are abutters. We can see the Abbreviated Notice between 10AM-2PM Tuesday (no date given) or by appointment at the town hall or their agent.

I can call to find out the time of the hearing.

No info on what this is really about. I suspect they want to put in a hyperspace bypass./

I've heard if you leave a job early because it isn't a good fit, that is OK. I'd have the new job in hand first, though.

However, my career advice probably isn't worth the electrons used to store it.

I wouldn't put in notice until I had a signed offer letter and start date.

It's perfectly acceptable as long as you give notice. Sometimes you don't know until you get there that it's not a good fit.

Thanks I know it's not "wrong" I just feel uncomfortable with the idea. I've seen other people do it.

We'll see what happens.
