Boss want me to serve 2 months notice, can I shorten?
Talk to your boss nicely first before jump to pay in lieu. My manager actually released me early with no penalty because I finished handover properly and helped train the replacement. If you leave on good terms and dont leave them in the lurch, many bosses will let you go. Being kurang ajar about it is what makes them hold you to the full 2 months out of spite.
