I 'might' have a chance of a civvy job coming up, but am earmarked for FI in a few months.
Done 23+ years, so have a theoretical 6 month notice period.
Question is, am I allowed to put my notice in with an impending OOA ? (I would feel guilty, but family come 1st, and 40K a year would be nice !!).

Will be speaking to the desk this week to clarify, but on a course at the mo.

You can put your notice in anytime but once warned for OOA, you will have to do the OOA. Same for the PVR route.
 
I hate to say it mate, but if your 22 is safe in the bank and I was in your situation, I'd say fcuk 'em, get a twisted sock and pull the yellow and black.

May be worth looking for 'the masked geeks' threads. Would provide a link but can't be bothered sorry.
I know of three who tried pretty hard to get out of it but all failed due to hardline from manning.

Christ... don't bring him into it!

TMG did nothing but whine about it when it happened to him... in fact, even the Goat wasn't big enough for all his wailing and he ran off to write a book about it! :PDT_Xtremez_28:

Gray, it looks like it will be a no go... however I remember TMG said something about getting the 'prospective employer' to hold the job for a few more months to allow him to do his OOA. In fact he even managed to cock this up and nearly got home to late to start his new job... even after a four month delay. :PDT_Xtremez_32:

Best of luck

Stands by for incoming from TMG!
