Well, I have already worked there for 2 weeks (3 weeks including training) and I am 100% positive that I do not want to work there any longer. Mostly for the same reasons that have been posted over and over again on here.

The whole "dreading to go to work the next day" feeling has already kicked in. I just believe that given my education and my previous job experience, I am well over qualified to be working here for dirt pay and slave hours. I have never had a job that made me want to go home and do absolutely NOTHING when I got there, night after night. Now the wife is complaining about my hours and that I never feel like doing anything and she is getting sick of me always complaining.

I am not trying to use Enterprise as a reference or put them on my resume or anything like that, so would it really even matter if I put my 2 weeks in if I have only been there for 3 weeks? I didn't think there was any need to.

I guess my bigger question would be what is the best way to quit in my situation. Just walk in and say hey I quit? I'm being serious. I don't want to "no call, no show", but I hate that place and don't want to be there 2 more weeks.

Thanks to any and all replies.
Well, that is up to you of course. However, when you give the 2 weeks you should expect the BM and the Assistant Manager (and perhaps the area manager) to sit you down in the BM's office, or to take you to Dairy Queen ad buy you a free ice cream and tell you how even Bill Gates wishes he worked at Enterprise. If you stand firm and say you still intend to quit then they will either cut you loose that day or they will get one more weekend out of you and at the end of that Saturday they will tell you that you don't need to come in anymore.

It sounds like you already hate it and frankly I felt the same way after about 6 weeks on the job and stuck around for 5 months and it wasn't worth it.

Good luck to you. Keep us updated.

What group are you in?
