However, the next day they got a call from their ex-manager asking them to train the new employee again. “Manager: “So can you train him again tonight?’ Me: ‘No, I start at my new job tonight.’ Manager: ‘So can’t come in tonight?’ Me: ‘No as I said in my email last night was my last night’. Manager: ‘But he needs to be trained’. Me: ‘Then I would suggest you find somebody to train him’,” the Reddit user posted. Take a look at the post here: The post was shared about five days ago. Since being shared, the post has gone viral. Till now, it has accumulated close to 19,000 upvotes and the numbers are only increasing. The share has also prompted people to post various comments.Here’s how Reddit users reacted to the work related post:“If you want your people trained well, Don’t let their trainer be the person who’s quitting. They have no investment in how this person does. Also maybe don’t send them in on the other person’s last day but give them a few days to settle first. Whatever, it’s the manager’s fault and problem,” posted a Reddit user. “This is a classic ‘that sounds like a you problem.’Tbh you did enough trying to train the guy, a lot of people wouldn’t have even done that,” added another. “Kinda makes the two-week notice useless when they don’t bother you until the 11th hour.,” joked a third. “I love and hate that moment where managers somehow don’t understand that quitting means you’re going to stop working for them,” wrote a fourth.
