I put in a two month resignation; which might seem like overkill. I know that my time is up pretty soon and well...I have not a single fuck to give. I have self-limited myself to working only 50 hours a week, which makes me feel like I'm just treading water instead of getting everything done. Don't get me wrong, I'm still making leaps and bounds for our organization, but I know that I could work 90 hours a week for my continued time and get more done.
Is it bad that I took a job and then will be quitting in just a few months? I think that at any other organization, it would be horrible. However, our employee turnover rate is 45%. That is mother effing crazy. I didn't notice it whenever I first started working, but since then I have noticed that most people pop off. Some get caught masturbating at work....and some just do a bad job. (I guess those two aren't necessarily mutually exclusive.)
Anyway, mi amiga peruviana, found a new job and decided to move on to the next. She only worked at our organization for 5 months, which is one month less than the average (Not joking, we cycle through bitches at my university.) Because of our turnover rate, we don't really make it a big deal when someone moves on. Which is kind of sad. Maybe, it's because I am a millenial or because my previous employer was kind whenever I left, I wanted to take make sure that she felt that she had a nice send-off.
I bought her flowers, a card, and gave her a pair of underwear that my sister sent me for the LMFAO concert. Naturally, I had to act like everyone contributed to that shit...and they totally went along with that shit.

Though our turnover rate is high, our pay is low, and we have tons of institutional problems; I could not have paid to get such a great amount of experience on my resume. I wrote my resume last night and after adding "Director of Business Operations" and "Harvard," I felt like I am relatively put-together...and I seem to have a targeted resume to move into education management/public sector consulting. #gotcha.
