    A lot of places will walk you out the moment you turn in notice.

    If you planned a two week notice and the other job won’t be ready for you until then…you’re kind of SOL.

    That’s why it’s important to pay close attention to how your job treats others who have left, and plan accordingly.

    But beyond that, you’ve also got payroll conflicts. If you get paid every other week at your current job, and your new job is off cycle or does bimonthly, or pays on set days, that can result in some short term gaps in income. If those happen to hit when bills are due and you are paycheck to paycheck, you’ll either have to get a loan or hope there’s an adequate grace period.
