Hi,
[ If this thread is off topic or not suited for this section or may be this site at all then just skip it or if required/possible delete it ]
I joined a company few months back. After working for 1 month in that company I resigned. ( Reason: They screwed me, making me work day and night, but lets leave that aside ). Now, company policy says that I have to serve 2 months notice period. But I didn't. After resignation I worked there for 14 days, and then never went back.
The company sent me one telegram and two letters, saying Unauthorized absence from duty, and I have to go back and serve the notice period. I can't do that. They said, they faced loss, monetary loss , reputation loss, project loss.
They say, If I will not go back then they will take legal action against me. Now, what is that legal action. Also, I have to compensate the losses they have faced. Now, Can they really ask for the loss they faced because of my resignation. Because in that case they can project any amount. In my appointment letter it was salary in lieu of notice period. One more thing, in recent letter they have mentioned my wrong resignation date ( No idea if this is deliberate act or what ). They mentioned my original resgination date + 7 Days !!!
Moreover, I have not replied to any of the letter till now on the suggestion of one of my relative. Will that go against me ?
Please advice.

But i would like to say that Mr Stanonymous, you have shown a really unprofessional behavior which is not tolerable. Every time when I see people posting this kind of query made me really feel sad that people are not serious about their future and not taking employment terms/norms seriously.
You admitted that you have done wrong and as BSSV said that you have posted the same query on other places too, which itself shows your fear to get legal actions against you by your Employer, and it wud be an appropriate and sensible action because you have done this consciously.
And the reason that you have presented does not make sense too. You said that they screwed you and assigned you too much work that made you feel to take this action is also not acceptable. I cant believe employee can be assigned too much work while he/she has not even completed a month in organization and completely new to the environment. One who having too much of experience even cant be asked to do the work like you have said and not even to a trainee who is going to learn the things as much as he/she will do practical ....
Therefore, your reasons are not acceptable and punishable. I would suggest you to go to your employer and speak to them to get the solution else be ready to have consequence that you have invited yourself.

Hello Dear Arora,
you may probably give a proper reply for this, I am unable to....... for your reference : What legal action can my employer take against me?
And, nice quote :-), time has power to change the things, that is why hope plays a major role .......
Have a good time......

yes we both know but one thing I would like to say that it is also our duty to let him know what he has done instead of asking to read the discussion to know what consequences he is gonna face.
If there is something that I need to learn and made you feel to let me know this, I would be highly grateful to you and if I and other feel the same for anybody, then its our duty to let him/her know the same and that’s I believe.
Also I have started a discussion on the same topic and I would like to have your valuable inputs on the same.

I agree with you Dear Arora, I have tried my best convincing him, but beyond that I am not capable of...... That is why I referred it to you,absolutely with the positive intention, so you may probably answer for what he's expecting........
Thank you for the link...
Have a nice day :-)

The original post has a lot of contradiction in it (as in 'worked for few months' then saying 'after i worked for a month...' so how many days did the person actually work?).
The mail projects an immature, confused, person without focus and unfortunately loads of mis conception.
Lets wind it up my respectable members of the blog without wasting time. Having said this, my suggestion:
1] Mr. Stanonymous, no point in running or hiding. You have rubbed your employer the very wrong way. Its unethical and unacceptable as my friends were mentioning.
Lets be bold and face the problem, meet the contact person in person, explain your point.
Suggest that you may join work in a later date owing to your confused state of mind.
Put a sincere effort to adhere to the standards and release yourself with dignity.
Else face the legal action, to which if properly presented they are entitled to.
Remember, mistakes happen, it worsens if you don't correct it.
Even if you succeed evading them now (because if your current employers loose interest in pursuing your case), it will remain as a deterrent in your future prospectus of joining any good establishments. Ideally your employers may have been infuriated the way you treated them, a sincere apology and penance should help.
May God bless you with wisdom.
