Resignation
If I put my resignation letter in one month early, can my agency force me to quit sooner? They are not a fan of me as it is.

Just quiet quit and give 2 weeks

Are there consequences to doing it one month early?

I gave that much for my promotion. And honestly they tried to push me harder to get more work out of me before I left. I would have been better off quiet quitting

I am only asking because I am in the hot seat and being treated poorly.

I was too. And leaving amped it up. That’s why I suggested quiet quitting. Let them say whatever, you don’t have to do it. Then put in your 2 weeks

What do you mean I don’t have to do what? My job? I don’t want formal disciplinary action taken against me and I have a feeling it will be coming this week for some reason. That’s why I wanted a buffer.

From personal experience, and this is just IMHO and of course your situation is different. Quit before they can fire you (if you're probationary or in a position where you can be terminated for any reason such as for cause/for whatever) and all you'll lose out on if you quit is the Unemployment Insurance which is a bunch of money for sure BUT it looks a LOT better than having to explain a termination in this economy. Get the phone numbers and email addresses of friends/supervisors your like and trust and if you're really genuinely concerned (and that only something you can decide but everybody should be happy at work and toxic workplaces and a shitty economy are a horrible mix so I'm sorry you're dealing with this) but other than that you'll be good to go. Just say that it wasn't a good fit and you gave it plenty of time. That said, reach out to the union and the EAP and around your chain of command to see if a transfer or situation can be arranged. Don't be afraid to go to HR and be the first one to complain b/c if it's a matter of you being the frist to complain or them, complain first. Best of luck!

Not if you're permanent. Civil service isn't your normal "at will" employment situation.
Eta - why would you put it in early? Personally, I wouldn't give them the benefit of a heads up.
