So I got a job offer that pays more and is closer to my home, I have been going through the process with the new job for the pass couple weeks like paperwork and background check. I received my official start date, however Hr is not able to give me the signed official offer letter until next week due to ceo not being in. They are fixed on the start date because the hiring process took a while. I told them next week won't be enough time to give my old job 2 weeks notice. They offer to send me an unsigned offer letter just to have some assurance.
However seeing that it's not signed I am still scared and wondering what to.. I really want to give my old job 2 weeks notice.
Edit: Thank you guys for all your response! I've decided to wait for my signed offer and give less than 2 weeks notice afterall I don't really care about burning the bridge with my old employer i just wanted to do it out of respect.
