职场点津：你知道该怎么辞职吗？

  　　In many cases, when you turn in your resignation¹, you're done. Some companies expect you to give two weeks notice, others will want you out the door by the end of the day or even immediately. If it's immediately, you will be asked to box up your personal items and you'll be escorted² to the door.

　　很多情况下，在你提交了辞职书后，你就完了。很多公司希望你提前两周发出通知，有的希望你当天下班就离开公司，有的甚至希望你马上就走。如果是马上就要求你走人的，他们可能就要求你打包，并在保安的看护下走人。

　　Before you submit your resignation to your boss, make sure you are prepared to leave.

　　You don't want to give any indication that you're moving on, like taking your photos off your desk or pictures off the wall, but you can quietly clear out your desk and clean up your computer. That way, you'll be ready to leave if the boss says "you're out of here" when you tender your resignation.

　　你不想大张旗鼓的表明你要辞职，比如撤走放在桌上的相片，或者墙上的照片，但是你可以悄悄的清理你的办公桌，电脑。这样，即使你的老板在你递交辞呈的时候让你马上离开你也做好了准备。

　　Are You Covered?

　　你是否做好了周全的准备?

　　Before you make that final decision to quit, make sure that you have a new job or another source of income. Also, check on health insurance coverage³, if you don't have another job lined up. You may be able to continue coverage via COBRA, but be sure before you resign.

　　在你确定要辞职之前，确保自己找到了份新工作，或有其他的收入保证。另外，如果你没有其他的工作，询问下医疗保险机构的覆盖范围。你或许可以继续享有由COBRA提供的医疗保险，但是在辞职前要确认好。
