- carlivar 5y agoIf the terms of the resignation contradict terms in the employment agreement, I would think so. As long as the employment agreement is legal itself.
- throwawaylinux 5y agoDuh, yes of course, good point! Not sure what I was thinking.
- esprehn 5y agoIf it's in violation of your contract they can reject your resignation, but most people are At Will employees which means either side can terminate employment.
- onphonenow 5y agoThis is generally false. You can’t be forced to work and a specific performance judgement is unlikely. If you resign and had a contract you can’t work elsewhere, may need to pay damages. But slavery, indentures etc mostly illegal these days
