  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If a post is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

Legally I think a resignation is valid upon delivery. CCing the new employer on a resignation email that specifies the effective date should solve your friend's dilemma. OTOH if he continues to accept payments it would be an acknowledgement of continued employment - which the new employer wouldn't know about but could be used by the previous employer if there's ever any sort of legal dispute in which his exact end date is important.

I think the move would probably be to send the letter, begin new employment, and then set aside any further payments they receive from the job they resigned from for reimbursement. On the other hand, have fun with the nightmare of returning the funds to the FDA, and also tax season and...yeah nevermind fuck that.

In a sane world the smart thing to do would be to put it into an index fund, but of course with Herr Gröpenfuhrer in charge, chances are SPY tanks again and they'd lose the money
