    You burn a bridge

    Yeah, that’s kind of the point

    keep the possibility of coming back sometime open

    If I wanted to work there I wouldn’t be quitting, especially not just dipping out

    Or if your boss actually liked you, you could have gotten a recommendation

    Usually people doing this aren’t in that situation, being on good terms with someone usually means you don’t just vanish on them

    instead decided to make their life suck.

    The vast majority of times this is, again, the point

      You do you, but a little professionalism goes a long way. Maybe that manager moves to another org that you want to apply at, and they reject you because of how you acted the last time. Or maybe they just tell someone at the new org how you left.

      Doing this has zero benefits to you, sending an email takes almost zero effort and might have some benefit for you. The rational thing is to send the email.

        Good, I don’t have to work with them again, win for me

        Doing this has zero benefits to you

        Catharsis comes to mind, on top of the schadenfreude

        sending an email takes almost zero effort

        Yeah, and thats part of why not doing it sends a point

        If your workers hate working for you so much they won’t even send an email then you should evaluate your management and work culture, yakno?
